By BBN Staff: Teenager Brian Neal faces multiple charges of obtaining property by deception in two separate cases in the North.

Orange Walk police arrested the 19 year old for trying to scam another person in that municipality.

But San Pedro Police say that Neal is also wanted for the same offence on the island.

He is alleged to have taken $280 from an employee of business woman 58-year-old Dorothea Pineda, using a fake phone call to trick the employee into thinking Pineda was talking to her on the phone and instructing her to give Neal the cash for a shrimp order.

Pineda identified him from a photograph on a phone provided by police.
