Labourer placed on bond after loitering offence

A St Michael labourer has been placed on a six-month bond to keep the peace after admitting to loitering on a residential property.

Rayshawn Jamol Javion Gibson, 31, of Princess Royal Avenue, Pinelands, St Michael, appeared in the No. 2 District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court before Magistrate Manila Renee and pleaded guilty that on June 8, he loitered on Sandra Callender’s premises and there was cause to suspect that he was about to commit the arrestable offence of theft.  

The court heard that the complainant heard a noise just after midnight and made a check and found the accused, who she recognised, in a fetal position on her balcony. Gibson jumped off the balcony and ran off. 

The police were contacted and the accused was arrested.  

Gibson was warned that if the bond was breached he would have to pay a fine of $750 in one day or face a week in prison.
