A Guys Hill man who stole a motorcycle last May has pleaded guilty in the St Catherine Parish Court and is to be sentenced on April 11.
Forty-four-year-old labourer Derron Palmer on Wednesday pleaded guilty to larceny.
The court was told that on May 15, 2022, the complainant parked his motorcycle under a tarpaulin and later realised that it was missing.
A report was subsequently made at the Guys Hill Police Station.
It was reported that while in the community of Berkshire Hall near Guys Hill on December 22 the complainant saw his motorcycle in the possession of another man.
The man told the complainant that it was Palmer who sold the bike to him.
The police subsequently arrested Palmer and he was later charged with larceny.
