A Douglas teenager has been banned from two supermarkets he’d accused of stealing from.

Morgan John Ritchie of Bowring Road in Ramsey appeared before Deputy High Bailiff James Brooks at Douglas Courthouse.

He denies theft, burglary, and assaulting a police officer but pleaded guilty to using threatening words or behaviour at an earlier hearing.

The 18 year old was bailed in the sum of £500 on condition he doesn’t enter the Co-op in Christian Street in Ramsey or Tesco in Douglas, and will appear again on October 14.
