A MAN was placed on three months’ probation yesterday after pleading guilty to stealing $2,040 worth of used batteries from Atlantis.
Adrian Wallace, 27, appeared before Magistrate Kara Turnquest-Deveaux on charges of stealing and receiving.
Sometime between May and July, the accused stole 68 used Trojan Batteries from the Atlantis Auto Pool Department with each being valued at $30 with a total worth of $2,040.
In view of his plea of guilty, the prosecution withdrew the receiving charge.
The magistrate placed Wallace on a conditional discharge of three months probation. In addition to this, he is expected to compensate Atlantis $138 for the theft and return the stolen batteries or risk six-months at the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services.
Wallace’s case was adjourned for mention on November 28.
