BARRINGTON, R.I. -- No charges will be brought against four members of the Barrington lacrosse team after an iPod and cash were stolen from the locker room at Moses Brown School after a May 1 game at the Providence prep school.

Sgt. Carl W. Weston of the Providence Police Department said the parents of the Moses Brown student decided not to press charges after a member of the Barrington lacrosse team gave back the stolen iPod. Initially, the police reported that $180 was stolen but Weston said the amount was closer to $20.

Weston said that a video in the Moses Brown locker room enabled Barrington High School officials to identify the lacrosse players, although the video did not capture the actual theft.

Would the penalty have been the same if it were students from Shea or Tollman?

Oh how nobel. Mummy and Daddy can walk around with their heads held high again. Still I wonder? This is a Barrington kid correct? Then should already have an iPod shouldn't he? Maybe his broke and he needed one for the iPod player in his CAR!
