A MAN was granted bail in court yesterday on firearm, ammunition and drug charges after being arrested on New Year’s Day.
Timoon Munroe, 27, faced Magistrate Samuel McKinney on charges of possession of an unlicenced firearm, possession of ammunition and possession of dangerous drugs.
It is alleged that on January 1, officers apprehend Munroe after he was found with a green and black Taurus 9mm pistol with the serial number erased. At the time of his arrest, it is also said that the accused had six unfired rounds of 9mm ammunition.
It is further alleged that on the same day Munroe had 4¼ oz of Indian hemp in his possession.
In court, the accused pleaded not guilty to all three charges.
He was granted $7,500 bail for the firearm charges and $1,500 bail for the drug charge with one or two sureties attached for each.
