Former delivery driver committed to Island's higher court

A man accused of stealing hundreds of parcels worth around £10,000 has been committed to stand trial in the Island’s higher court.

Stephen Joseph Keig of Princes Avenue in Douglas appeared before magistrates at Douglas Courthouse.

The former delivery driver denies two counts of theft, but has admitted four counts of possessing indecent images of children, possessing an offensive weapon and making false representations to get Covid LFT tests.

Magistrates committed him to the Court of General Gaol Delivery and bailed him until his next court appearance on a date to be fixed.
