Teen who picked out potential theft victims remanded on bail

A 16-year-old boy, who worked as a look-out and selected a young woman as potential theft victim for his accomplice, has been remanded on bail pending sentence by Judge David Anderson at the Dublin Children’s Court.

The boy, who is originally from Romania, but living in Ireland with his family for the past three years, had denied theft of a 17-year-old girl’s wallet, at Temple Bar in Dublin, in the early hours of September 17 last year.
