THE FREE PRESS NEWS FEBRUARY 13, 2000 All Snow/ Sled Teen gets two years for robbing gas station A city teen has gotten neatly two years in open custody after pleading guilty to robbing a local gas station last fall. Six days after the 16-year-old walked away from a work gang at the Prince George Youth Containment Centre, he walked into the Shell gas station at Fifth Avenue and Carney Street with a knife. To the cashier he said “Put all the money in a brown paper bag.” In the end, he walked away from the gas station with $210. However, his fortune was short-lived, as he was arrested in the area less than 10 minutes later with the money in hand. Before going into the gas station, he had forgotten to cover his face, but did the b st he could with a kerchief around his neck. After his arrest, the cashier identified him from a photo line up. On Friday, he pleaded guilty to the robbery In sentencing, the Crown noted the fact that this was this youth’s third armed robbery in less than a year. However, his defence counsel pointed to a less than savoury upbringing and the fact that he was high on cocaine when he robbed the Shell station. “I am being asked to choose between the protection of the public and this young man’s rehabilitation,’’ stated Judge Lynn Dollis. In the end, she was not inclined to write this youth off just yet, and sentenced him to serve 20 months in open custody However, he will not start serving that sentence until September, when he has finished the sentence on the first two robberies. After that, he will serve 19 months on probation. PP/te VPa amnereCi Let us whisk up an exciting and unique Kitchen Show or Bridal Shower.
