A 31-year-old unemployed man has pleaded guilty in a Bridgetown Magistrate Court to stealing almost $1 200 in alcohol.

Kadeem Stephen Shamere Lewis, of Bourne’s Land, Silver Sands, Christ Church, appeared before Magistrate Alison Burke in the District ‘A’ Traffic Court on Friday and initially denied stealing five bottles of brandy valued $912.87, belonging to Wine World on March 19.

Magistrate Burke remanded him to Dodds Prison until May 8 pending sentencing.
