A MAN was granted bail after he was accused of injuring two women at a restaurant in Exuma and violently resisting arrest last weekend.
Magistrate Kendra Kelly charged Oscar Cartwright, 44, with grievous harm and threats of death.
While Cartwright was initially charged with assault, this was upgraded to causing harm.
Cartwright faced additional charges of aggravated assault, resisting arrest, disorderly behaviour and disorderly behaviour in a police station.
Ian Jupp represented him.
Cartwright is accused of seriously injuring and threatening to kill Shaquanya Baker at the Hasty’s Home Plate Restaurant in George Town, Exuma, on the night of December 17. During the same incident, Cartwright allegedly injured Reshmi Davis.
Cartwright is also accused of behaving inappropriately at the Fish Fry in George Town, allegedly cursing and assaulting PC 4166 Munroe while resisting arrest. Following his arrest, the accused allegedly continued to act inappropriately at the George Town Police Station.
After pleading not guilty to all the charges, Cartwright was granted $3,000 bail for the attack on the two women and $2,000 bail for resisting arrest. Under the terms of the bail, he must sign in at the George Town Police Station every Monday and Friday.
