Three men appeared in Magistrates' Court yesterday facing 23 charges of burglary and receiving stolen goods relating to 13 separate incidents.

Shannon Wilkinson, 22 of Palm Valley Southampton and Tyrone Pedro, 19, of Fork Lane Southampton, both represented by lawyer Kendrick James, are jointly charged with 23 counts of burglary and receiving stolen goods.

Javon Caisey, 27, of Granaway Heights, Southampton, represented by lawyer Mark Pettingill, faced one charge of prowling relating to count 23 for Pedro and Wilkinson.

All three men pleaded not guilty to all charges.
