In a recent court ruling in St. John’s, Antigua, Toby Bowen, a resident of Crosbies, faced legal consequences for stealing items from a local supermarket. Bowen admitted to one count of larceny after being caught on surveillance footage leaving First Best Supermarket on Bendals Road with unpaid goods on November 8. The stolen items included a bottle of engine oil, cooking oil, and a pack of Huggies diapers. The St. John’s Magistrates’ Court imposed a $300 fine on Bowen, giving him one month to pay or face a 15-day prison sentence. Additionally, Bowen was ordered to compensate the supermarket owner within seven days or risk an extra week in jail. Bowen was apprehended by police in the Gray’s Farm area several days after the incident and was subsequently taken into custody.
