Two teenagers, one of whom is the son of the councillor caretaker, were arrested in connection with the incident and are to undergo an identification parade later this week.



The police said their investigation into the suspected stolen vehicle, led them to the councillor caretaker’s home where the bulbs were discovered.



Commanding Officer for the St. Andrew North Police Division, Superintendent Anthony Morris said investigations are continuing to determine whether the bulbs are linked to the Cuban light bulb project.
