The Westmoreland police continue to make progress in their efforts against lottery scamming, reporting that they have arrested and charged another teenage boy believed to be a significant player in the illicit activity.
The 16-year-old suspect was taken into custody on Wednesday in the Frome community of the parish.
Reports indicate that around 7:00 a.m., a team of officers was conducting an operation along a section of the Frome main road when they noticed the teenage boy walking along the roadway.
Upon seeing the lawmen, he began to act suspiciously, prompting the police to search him.
It is alleged that two sheets containing names, addresses, telephone numbers, and other personal information of individuals living overseas were found on him.
The teen was taken into custody and subsequently charged.
