Upon his arrest, the teenager confessed to the police that he committed the offence, saying that on his return from school on the fateful day, his father, Mr Ayodele Adetoyinbo (56), had accused him of stealing six of his empty kegs.
Olalekan said his explanation to his father that he knew nothing about the missing kegs fell on deaf ears, a situation which led to a heated argument between father and son.
