A MAN was remanded in custody yesterday after he was accused of shooting a man outside his house in Pinewood Gardens over the summer.

Acting Chief Magistrate Roberto Reckley charged Shaquan Dean, 28, with attempted murder and possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.

Dean reportedly approached Ricardo Bullard with another armed suspect as he sat in his Honda vehicle outside his home on Thatch Palm Avenue on the night of July 26.

The defendant is accused of shooting the 29-year-old victim multiple times about the body with a handgun.

Bullard survived after being treated for his injuries in hospital.

The accused was told the matter would be transferred to the Supreme Court through a voluntary bill of indictment due to be served on December 7. He was remanded in custody until bail is granted by a higher court.
