Career and veteran burglar, David White, back behind bars

David White

A man who already has a series of criminal offenses to answer to had another charge added to his list today.  David White is being accused of breaking into the business place of Raymond Matus, who owns a store on New Road.  Allegations are that between seven thirty last Friday night and seven forty five on Saturday night someone broke into his store and stole items worth over eleven hundred dollars.  But White says the charge against him is bogus.  This morning when he appeared before Magistrate Kathleen Lewis he said he could not have committed the crime because he had been in police custody for the entire weekend.  Magistrate Lewis asked the court prosecutor to inquire the matter.  But White ran out of luck today when he was remanded into custody until Thursday.
