Percy’s set alight! Thirty-four-year-old Dean Vaughan appeared in Queanbeyan Local Court on Friday, charged with malicious damage, break, enter and steal, stealing a motor vehicle and three police pursuits. Vaughan, a resident of the Cooma COSP centre, was arrested in Cooma at 7.15am on Thursday after breaking into the rear of Percy’s Newsagency and setting the shop alight. He was refused bail and will reappear in Queanbeyan Court on June 24. The fire began just before 5am at Percy’s Newsagency, on the corner of Sharp and Vale Streets in Cooma. Two people in an adjacent apartment had to be evacuated due to smoke but were later allowed to return. It took five fire crews about 20 to 30 minutes to bring the fire under control.
