A St George resident is currently in custody assisting police with their investigations into a series of housebreaking and stealing offences in the south of the island.
The breakthrough came after police mounted numerous sting operations which resulted in a recovery of various electronic items, power tools, vehicle parts, generators, etc.
Several of these items have already been claimed by their owners. Persons who been affected by these break-ins are asked to contact South St George Police Station.
Meanwhile, in the Western Policing District, a 52-year-old Farmer was arrested and charged with livestock theft after 5Â cattle worth an estimated value of $10,500 were reported missing in the Gouyave Estate area in early September.
