A 27-year-old Grand Bahama man was charged in a Freeport court yesterday with causing grievous harm.

Theojah McKenzie, of Lewis Yard, appeared before Deputy Chief Magistrate Debbye Ferguson.

It is alleged that on August 21, 2022, at Lewis Yard, the accused intentionally and unlawfully caused harm to Lenny Curry.

McKinney pleaded not guilty to the charge.

The prosecutor did not object to bail, but requested that conditions be imposed. The prosecutor also presented to the court a hospital form of the victim who was severely injured and is still in hospital in New Providence.

“We ask the court to also take into consideration the severity of the injuries,” he said.

When Deputy Chief Magistrate Ferguson asked the accused if he was employed, McKinney said he worked in construction.

She granted the accused $1,500 bail and ordered that he not interfere with any of the witnesses in the matter. He was also ordered to sign-in every Wednesday at the nearest police station before 6pm.

The case was adjourned to January 19, 2023.
