TWO men accused of an armed robbery and an attempted armed robbery at a service station last week were remanded to prison yesterday.
Prosecutors allege that E’Zion Mortimer, 19, and Frederick Ramsey, 33, armed with a black handgun, robbed Lucson Michaud of $1,265 belonging to Clyde Rashad on November 4 in New Providence. The same day, the pair allegedly tried to rob Hakeem Knowles at gunpoint of cash belonging to an Esso service station.
The men were not required to enter pleas to charges of armed robbery and attempted armed robbery before acting Chief Magistrate Ancella Evans.
They were told their case would proceed to the Supreme Court by voluntary bill of indictment (VBI) and that they could apply for bail in the higher court.
They were remanded to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services until their VBIs are served on February 25, 2027.
Inspector Deon Barr prosecuted.
