A motorcycle mechanic was remanded to prison on Wednesday by Magistrate Judy Latchman at the Providence Magistrates’ Court on a charge of illegal possession of a high powered weapon.
Devon Atkinson
Devon Atkinson, also known as “Wild Buck”, of Kitty, Georgetown denied the charge which stated that on July 14, 2019 at Linden-Soesdyke Highway, he had a Bushmaster Carbon 15 AR 15 Pistol in his possession while not being the holder of a firearm license.
Atkinson was represented by Attorney-at-Law Siand Dhurjon, who made a bail application on behalf of his client. The prosecution is contending that on July 14, Atkinson was observed by Police officers pulling out the weapon from his backpack at an event outside a popular resort on the Linden-Soesdyke Highway. It is also alleged that Atkinson discharged several rounds in the air.
Magistrate Latchman remanded the man to prison and the case will continue on August 6.
