A MAN was remanded to prison on Thursday, accused of stealing a car at gunpoint in Mount Royal Avenue and physically attacking him in April.
Christoph Knowles, 45, was arraigned on charges of armed robbery and grievous harm before Chief Magistrate Roberto Reckley.
The defendant is accused of allegedly robbing Dwight Williams of his 2016 Nissan Note on April 23, along with accomplices and while armed with a handgun.
He also allegedly beat up Mr Williams and left him seriously injured.
The stolen vehicle, valued at $6,000, was later recovered on Market Street.
The defendant was not required to enter a plea. He was informed his matter will proceed to the Supreme Court via a voluntary bill of indictment (VBI).
He was told of his right to apply for bail through the higher court.
The accused will be remanded to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services until his VBI is potentially served on October 30.
Sergeant Vernon Pyfrom served as the prosecutor.
