Eight men and three juveniles have been remanded for another 28 days in connection with the alleged assault and robbery of an American visitor at Savvy On The Bay.
Joshua Greg Belgrave, 21, of St Hill Road, Carrington Village; Addagio Marlon Bostic, 18, of Laynes Gap, Martindales Road; Leonardo Ricardo Allsopp, 26, of Grassfield Gap, Stevenson Road, Delamare Land; Chad Seon Codrington, 18, of Licorish Village, My Lords Hill; Donte Richardo Sealy, 18, of Murrell Road, Carrington Village; Seth Ethan Griffith, 23, of Blackmans Road, Carrington Village; Kenavar Antwan Charles, 18, of Nurse Land, Tweedside Road; and Xavier Xalico Joseph, 19, of Cave Hill, all of St Michael, and three juveniles reappeared before Acting Chief Magistrate Douglas Frederick in the No. 1 District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.
They are accused that, with intent to maim, disfigure or disable Darin Sisco or to do serious bodily harm to him, they unlawfully did serious bodily harm to Sisco; that they robbed Sisco of two chains valued at US$1 000 (BDS$2 028.27) and a US$800 (BDS$1 622.56) cell phone; that they robbed Larraine Sisco of a US$800 cell phone (BDS$1 622.56) and that, when present together with other persons, they used unlawful violence and their conduct, taken together, would cause a person of reasonable firmness present at the scene to fear for their personal safety.
Sergeant Gazelda Knights, in objecting to the men being released on bail, pointed to the prevalence of such offences, the current environment where serious crimes are being committed by young men, and the shock to society, which continues to feel the impact of such offences.
The men were again remanded to Dodds Prison, and the case will continue on July 21.
