58-year-old Andy Boddy, a self-employed resident of St. Ann Village, reported to Maskall Police that on Saturday, July 27th, 2019, someone broke into his house through his wooden back door. That person then ransacked his home and stole several of his personal items including, a speaker, a flash drive, 3 bottles of coconut oil, a shirt, a black Motorola Verizon cellular phone, a black warm cap, a brown wooden handle knife, and an assortment of canned food, all to a total value of $389.

Police investigated Boddy's complaint, and a Police Constable reportedly visited Lilian's shop, which is located in Maskall Village. This Constable reported that while he was there, he met Smith, who was wearing several articles of Boddy's stolen clothing. The officer said that he approached Smith, told him about the burglary report, explained to him that he would be searched for other stolen items, as well as other illegal items.

During the search, the cop reportedly found 3 transparent plastic bags, containing marijuana, and in Smith's other pockets, he found the stolen flash drive, the stolen cellular phone, and the stolen knife.

The officer then arrested and charged Smith with burglary, handling stolen goods, and drug possession for the 16 grams of marijuana. He was arraigned before Senior Magistrate Tricia Pitts-Anderson, and although the cops say they caught him with all those items, he pleaded not guilty.
