TWO CBH EMPLOYEES CHARGED WITH LARCENY OF DIESEL

Police have charged two employees of the Central Board of Health, after an alleged diesel-stealing operation was uncovered this week.
Derrick Wade of Villa and Hubert Cortright Josiah of Paynters have been charged with Larceny and Unlawful Possession.
They were jointly charged with larceny of 40 gallons of diesel and charged separately with unlawful possession.
In the case of one of the accused, 43 gallons of diesel were allegedly found at his home, while 7 gallons were reportedly found at the home of the other.
They are expected in court later this week.
Police say the matter remains under investigation.
As ABS News was first to report, the fuel they allegedly stole was intended for their use to spray locations across the country with stagnant water, to curtail the breeding of mosquitoes.
Law enforcers say the workers, who were attached to the Vector Control Unit, colluded to siphon the diesel which they collected each morning to carry out their duties.
