Taxi Driver on $30,000 bail for throwing ‘squibs’
Taxi driver, Nicholas Brown, 23, yesterday appeared before Magistrate Fabayo Azore at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court where he answered to a charge which alleged that on November 3, in Alexander Village, Brown, in a public place, threw fireworks at a gathering.
To the allegation, the defendant pleaded not guilty.
Brown is married, has one child and resides at 178 Fourth Street, Alexander Village. He was represented by Attorney-at-Law Peter Hugh who refuted that there was a public gathering as alleged by the particulars of the charge. The lawyer also told the court that Brown has no previous convictions or charges.
In a bail application for his client, Hugh requested that the court consider the fact that Brown was previously placed on $10,000 station bail.
Magistrate Fabayo placed Brown on $30,000 bail and ordered him to return to court on November 19.
