A court date is being finalised.

A woman who was at a police station in the Corporate Area making a report has been charged for allegedly stealing the cell phones of another woman who was also at the station filing a report.

Charged with simple larceny is 39-year-old Suzan McLean of a St Andrew address.

The incident happened on Friday at a police station located in the St Andrew North Police Division.

Reports from the police are that about 3:00 p.m., a woman visited the station to make a report and, while there, she left her two cell phones in the guardroom area.

McLean, who was also at the station making a report, allegedly removed the woman’s phones and had them in her possession.

The police say a brisk search of her person revealed both devices.

She was taken into custody and subsequently charged.

A court date for her is being arranged.
