The man accused of using a dump truck to try and smash his way into an e-bike store in Richmond, B.C., will remain in jail for the time being.
At a bail hearing Friday, a B.C. Provincial Court Judge ordered that Joey Antoine Maillet be kept in custody pending his next court appearance.
Maillet is charged with multiple offences, including break-and-enter and theft of a motor vehicle for allegedly trying to ram his way into the business on Maycrest Way on Nov. 16.
The incident was captured on security video, which showed the truck repeatedly smashing into the front of the building, but failing to penetrate the business’ security gates.
While nothing was stolen, the damage to the business, the truck, and the lot the truck was stolen from is estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
