Youth accused of taking BMW after fishing keys through letterbox
The 17-year-old, who has yet to enter a plea, has been charged at the Dublin Children’s Court with burglary and motor theft at Woodstown Way in Knocklyon, which happened early on May 5. It is also alleged that about 10 days later, he was arrested at his west Dublin home and was in possession of stolen property, including a purse, a laptop computer, and a sat-nav system.
Garda Maria Dennison told Judge John O’Connor that “a bamboo pole was put though the letterbox” and keys for a ’08-reg five series BMW car were “fished out”.
