19-year-old Theo Russell Rogers was initially arrested on 10 March, 2020, for smashing the window of a phone box in St Martin’s.
The unemployed teenager appeared before Guernsey’s Magistrate on Thursday, where the court heard how the phone box at Galleries du Manoir belongs to Sure, which had to replace a pane of glass which was smashed in the incident.
Rogers also appeared in court in connection with this incident on 1 April, where his case was adjourned. Later that day he was arrested at the PEH after reports he was behaving in a disorderly manner.
The hospital is dealing with the Bailiwick’s covid-19 outbreak. On that date the islands had been in lockdown for a week already and the island’s Medical Director had said the PEH was preparing to deal with the “pandemic equivalent of a tsunami”.
Rogers appeared before the Magistrate’s Court for sentencing on Thursday where previous probation orders and suspended sentences he had been given, for other offences including two disorderly conduct matters, were revoked.
He was sentenced to a total of nine months youth detention for the two recent offences and for breaching his previous probation orders and suspended sentences.
