Ballycarry man denies handling stolen suit of medieval armour

A man denies a charge of handling stolen goods - a medieval suit of armour and two airguns.

The 31-year-old is charged in relation to February.

Javin McClure, of Brackenberg Avenue, Ballycarry, appeared at Ballymena Magistrates Court via video link from prison.

Charges of stealing the armour during a Larne burglary and possession of the Class A drug, 'crystal meth,' were withdrawn by prosecutors.

A defence barrister says the defendant did not know what was inside a bag. The case was adjourned to November 19 for a contest.
