An 18-year-old man pleaded not guilty to stealing a laundry list of some 24 personal items when he appeared in Magistrates' Court on Monday.

Dwyer Hassan Booth, of Ord Road, Paget, is charged with stealing a variety of jewellery and electronic items which included cell phones, a laptop computer, watches, digital cameras, a portable PlayStation, an iPod, DVD players and necklaces as well as some cash.

Police last week reported that the items had been recovered from a Paget residence and released details of the items in order that the rightful owners might collect them.

Booth, who has no prior convictions, has been remanded in custody until his hearing, which is set for March 10.
