A MAN was ordered to have a mental evaluation yesterday after being charged in connection with a recent home arson.
Anthony Brennen, 27, appeared before Chief Magistrate Joyann Ferguson-Pratt on a charge of damage by fire.
It is alleged that on January 17 in New Providence the accused intentionally set fire to an 11-room single-storey stone structure belonging to Nellie Brennen. This fire is said to have caused an estimated $415.87 worth of damage before being extinguished.
In court, the magistrate ordered that the accused get a mental evaluation to see if he was fit to enter a plea.
Brennen was remanded to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services pending his psychological screening.
Brennen is to return to court on January 23.
