(Ellsworth Dickson photo) Hungry youth stole A 17-year-old youth told Judge Nancy Morrison i North Vancouver Provincial Court last week that he stole food from a supermarket because he was hungry and neither he nor his father had any money. The judge told Donald Cook, whose address was given as 461-1951 Marine Drive, North Vancouver, that she was concerned that anyone would be driven by hunger to steal and that there were welfare authorities to provide for such problem situations. She suspended sentence when he pleaded guilty to stealing merchandise worth less than $200 from Super Valu January 10 and she placed him on probation with a condition that he should carry out 30 hours’ community work service. _Crown counsel Eric Watson told court that Cook was seen at the Capilano Mall store placing a number of food items into a box which was loaded into a shopping buggy. About 20 minutes later he left the store with the buggy of articles without paying for them. He was followed outside by security staff and was found to have items worth a total of $62. He was said to have told police he was hungry and had not eaten for some time. In court he told Judge Morrison he lived with his father and said: “We both just ran out of money.” Crashed while licence ‘Suspended Pohce investigating a single vehicle motor ac- cident in North Vancouver found the driver was not even entitled to drive, Provincial court heard last week.

For this reason the North Vancouver RCMP are launching a program to register all bikes in the area in an attempt to cut down on the number of thefts. An RCMP spokesman said only 158 of the 387 bicycles turned in last year were able to be returned to their owners, because they were registered. He said very few charges were laid in connection with bike thefts for the same reason; police were not able to properly identify the bikes. In an attempt to deal with this problem the RCMP hope to visit all elementary schools in the Lynn Valley area by the end of June to put registration stickers on all the bicycles. Auxiliary officers will spend a day or two at each school, putting on the stickers which are donated by the North Shore Optimist Club, registering serial numbers, and giving in- structions on bicycle safety. The spokesman said that schools may also be able to get a reduced rate on the the price of bicycle locks. The registration program may be expanded to other zones in North Vancouver | before the end of the year, |; the spokesman said. CORRECTION Flyer inserted in the North Shore News, January. 30,1980.
