P.G. burglary suspect charged with 11 counts

A notorious burglary suspect has been nabbed by authorities in the southern town of Punta Gorda after police caught him red-handed with several stolen items. According to investigating officers, residents of P.G. and surrounding villages have been the victims of numerous burglaries, but they were unable to pin the crime on their main suspect. The break in the case came on Sunday night when cops found twenty-two year old Colin Mangar with several suspicious items that they later determined had been stolen. That finding gave them cause to search Mangar’s home where they found jewellery, household items, and electronic equipment that have since been identified by several victims. Mangar was today charged with five counts each of burglary and handling stolen property and one count of drug trafficking for possession of five grams of cocaine. He has been remanded to prison awaiting trail.
