Two Men Indicted on Theft Charges From Merrimack Premium Outlets

A Bedford man was indicted in Hillsborough County Superior Court South at the end of February on a charge of theft by unauthorized taking for allegedly stealing nearly $4,000 from Ultra Diamonds at the Merrimack Premium Outlets.

Phillip Delisle, 24, of 14 Birkdale Ave., Bedford, was arrested for allegedly making fraudulent returns to his own debit card, in the amount of $3,799.91, without returning merchandise to the fine jewelry store over a period of time between Sept. 18 and Nov. 8, 2012.

If convicted, the class A felony could net him up to 7½ to 15 years in prison and up to $4,000 in fines.

In another theft case from the Merrimack Premium Outlets, William Delisle, 19, of 515 Lincoln St., Apt. 1, Manchester, was indicted on a charge of theft by unauthorized taking, a class B felony.

It is unclear if the two men are related.

William Delisle was arrested on Nov. 16, when he allegedly stole jeans and shirts from Sak's 5^th Avenue Off 5^th and Polo Ralph Lauren and then attempted to flee the security guard while police were en route.

According to court paperwork, Delisle has twice been convicted of theft on Feb. 3, 2011, out of Manchester District Court and Jan. 3, 2012.

If convicted, William Delisle could face up to 3½ to 7 years in prison and up to $4,000 in fines.

An indictment is not an indication of guilt but rather a determination by a grand jury that there's sufficient evidence in a case to move it toward trial.
