A city slicker who was looking forward to setting up his own mini-farm in the South Burnett was fined $1500 in Kingaroy Magistrates’ Court today after he admitted moving cattle without a travel permit.<\/p>\n

Shaun Donnelly purchased the three animals from a farm near Proston and loaded them into a trailer on the back of his vehicle. He planned to take them to Nanango but he was not aware that he needed a permit to move the cattle through a tick-free area.<\/p>\n

Along the way, the cows kicked opened the door of the trailer and escaped.<\/p>\n

Magistrate W.A. Cridland commented that Donnelly “was having a bad day” but said the result could have been quite devastating and that a deterrent penalty was necessary.<\/p>\n

A Kingaroy man who pleaded guilty to one count of wilful damage after smashing the rear window of a parked car was placed on 18 months probation and ordered to perform 40 hours community service.<\/p>\n

Police Prosecutor Sgt Nick Nitschke\u00a0alleged Aaron Long damaged both tail-lights and the rear window of a cream Nissan stationwagon parked at Kingaroy Shoppingworld on March 14. \u00a0A baseball bat, truncheon and steel bar were later found in his vehicle.<\/p>\n

Counsel for Long said her client had been travelling in a car with three other people when there had been a prior altercation with a vehicle earlier in the morning. They had later run across the same vehicle parked at Shoppingworld and one of the car occupants had suggested “it would be fun to smash a window”. \u00a0She said Long had problems with impulsivity and would not have acted without prompting.<\/p>\n

Magistrate W.A. Cridland noted that Long had made full admissions and had entered an early plea. No conviction was recorded.<\/p>\n

James Eggleton, of Kingaroy, was \u00a0fined $300 and ordered to pay $1455 (the conservation value of the reptile) after pleading guilty to keeping a protected native animal, a carpet python.<\/p>\n

The 60cm-long python, which was being kept in a glass fish tank at Eggleton’s house in Haly Street, is now being looked after by a wildlife carer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
