'Man took €5,000 from unlocked car parked at Kildare service station'


Claim
A man who allegedly stole €5,000 from an unlocked vehicle appeared at Naas District Court.
William Cawley, 23, whose address was given as Ardcath Road, Garristown, Dublin, was prosecuted for taking the money at Circle K northbound, Kill on June 18, 2020.
Sgt Dave Hanrahan told the court that the money was not recovered.
He also said that no violence was used during the incident.
Sgt Hanrahan said that the money was withdrawn from a bank and the injured party then drove to the Circle K service station. He said it would be alleged that the defendant took the money from the vehicle.
Solicitor David Gibbons said the defendant had indicated that he wanted to be tried in the circuit court.
Judge Desmond Zaidan granted free legal aid after hearing that the defendant is not working and is receiving social welfare, at a previous sitting.
He remanded the defendant on continuing bail until May 24.
