Man who slashed ex-girlfriend’s car tyres on $30k bail
Kaieteur News – A 26-year-old man was placed on $30,000 bail on Friday, after he was charged with two counts of damage to property when he appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court.
The defendant, Kenrico Myres of Lot QQ Bent Street, Kitty, Georgetown, appeared before Magistrate Faith McGusty. He pleaded not guilty to the charges.
It is alleged that Myres damaged three car tyres valued $42,000 belonging to Sophia Simmons. The accused also damaged a gate bolt and bracket valued $20,000 and owned by Jason Benn on August 2, 2024 on D’Urban Street, Georgetown.
According to police statements presented in court, Myres and Simmons had been in a relationship for four years. On the day of the incident, Simmons visited her friend Benn where she parked her car securely on Benn’s bridge before entering his residence.
Around 18:20hrs, Simmons heard a loud sound coming from Benn’s gate and upon looking outside, observed Myres slashing her car tyres.
Myres reportedly fled the scene after slashing the woman’s tyres.
The incident was reported to the police and Myres was arrested and subsequently charged.
During the proceedings, the prosecutor requested that Myres be placed on a bond to keep the peace.
Myres is scheduled to return to court on October 4, 2024.
