A beaten and bruised 46 year old Sydney Collins was finally well enough to be taken to court today to be charged for the burglary of a Chinese restaurant. Hong Wei Lui told police that early in the morning of November 11th he heard a noise inside his restaurant – MK’s Fast FFood on Cemetery Road. He got up to check and that’s when a nieghbour told him a burglar was inside. Hong Wei Lui checked and saw a man walking towards him. Lui wasted no time and picked up a fan which he attacked the intruder with.
That intruder was later identified as Sydney Collins who was in a way saved from a beating by the police. He was taken to the KHMH and today to court and charged for stealing $30. He pled not guilty and was offered bail of 4 thousand dollars. He was unable to meet it and was remanded to jail.
In court when asked where he got the bruises and the broken arm, Collins told the Magistrate the police did it. He has 11 previous convictions and failed to meet bail.
