Pair sentenced for breaking into and stealing from granddad’s house
Two young men have been sentenced for breaking, entering and larceny at a home in Potters that belongs to one of their grandparents.
In September 2019, 20-year-old Damian Crump of Hatton and 22-year-old Shaquan Buckley of Gray’s Farm pried open the bedroom window of the first defendant’s grandfather’s house and ransacked one of the rooms.
They stole three gold chains, an iPhone, an ID bracelet and other items valued at almost $6,000.
Crump was picked up days later at Cash Wiz in Woods Mall with some of the stolen items, while Buckley was arrested in Gray’s Farm.
