THREE teenagers have appeared before Drogheda District Court charged in connection with the theft of a large number of computers worth more than €5,000 from St Oliver’s Community College (pictured) last May.

The trio, who cannot be named for legal reasons, are accused of trespass and the theft of 27 Black Chromebook­s valued at €200 each from the secondary school on May 27th last year.

One of those involved is in custody in relation to a different matter, the court heard, and was remanded on continuing bail to appear on June 27th for the preparatio­n of a Probation Report.

The second teen involved, a 15-year-old, had his case adjourned to June 27th with a number of bail conditions imposed.

John Coughlan instructed that the teenager sign on daily between 9am and 5pm at Drogheda Garda Station, observe a curfew between 7pm and 9am, have no contact with his two co-accused, remain sober and be available at all times for contact on his mobile phone by gardaí. Similar bail conditions were also imposed on the third co-accused.

‘If you break any of the conditions you’re going away. Black and white, I don’t want any whining off you,’ Judge Coughlan told the pair.
