A San Fernando man was granted bail in the sum of $500,000 with a surety or an alternate cash bail of $50,000, when he appeared before a South Masters’ Court last Friday after he was charged with possession of firearm and ammunition.
D’ Angelo Alleyne, of Ramsaran Street, San Fernando, is expected to reappear in court on November 20, 2024.
According to police reports, around 8 pm on July 7, 2023, officers received information and proceeded to Padmore Street, Gulf View. Upon arrival they observed a man holding a black bag around his chest. He then looked in the direction of the officers and removed the bag and threw it on the ground and ran away escaping.
PC George took possession of the bag and upon searching it he found one black Glock 17 pistol with 15 rounds of nine-millimetre ammunition.
On July 16, 2024, a party of officers attached to the Princes Town Criminal Investigations Department arrested the suspect at St Croix Road, Princes Town. He was formally charged last Thursday.
Investigations were spearheaded by ASP Phillip and Insp Mohammed of the Southern Division CID.
