Category: Break Enter

Five people have been charged in relation to a break and enter offence that occurred at a Manoora tavern on Tuesday morning. The offence occurred at about 1.45am after entry was forced to the main bar area of the premises and a quantity of liquor allegedly stolen. Subsequent police inquiries in the vicinity led officers to a Chester Court unit where they located a group of people in possession of a quantity of liquor that had allegedly been stolen from the tavern. Two 15-year-old girls and men aged 17; 20 and 29 were charged with entering a premise and committing an indictable offence. The men are due to appear in the Cairns Magistrates Court later today and the girls will be dealt with under the provisions of the Youth Justice Act 1992.
