A MAN was placed on probation yesterday after admitting to receiving a stolen motorcycle last week.

Senior Magistrate Anishka Isaacs arraigned Shannon Nixon, 21, on a charge of receiving.

The defendant was reportedly found by police in possession of a 2025 Yamaha XTZ125E motorcycle, which had been stolen from Jarred Evans.

Nixon was aware that the motorcycle had been obtained through an offence.

The vehicle in question was valued at $2,722.73.

Nixon pleaded guilty to the charge and accepted the facts of the case.

Magistrate Isaacs sentenced Nixon to one year on probation. Should he breach the terms of his probation, Nixon would face a fine of $6,000 or six months in prison.

Assistant Superintendent of Police Bould served as the prosecutor.
