Teen Crew Pleads Guilty in Mall Heist | Toronto News
Description
Another teen from the December smash-and-grab at Charm Diamond Centres has pleaded guilty, admitting he was part of the crew that smashed jewelry cases, grabbed loot, and tried to flee — all while kids were posing with Santa nearby. The 16-year-old from Brampton, whose name is being withheld, got a suspended sentence and is back with his family — but now banned from the mall. He’s the second minor to take responsibility; a 15-year-old from Toronto also pleaded guilty earlier this summer, admitting to using pepper spray and a weapon during the daylight heist. Police nabbed one suspect at the mall, others after their getaway car crashed. The judge asked the teen what he was thinking — he had no answer. If he messes up probation, he could face jail time. The rest of the alleged crew are due back in court next month — charges still pending.
