A Bayland St Michael man walked out of the No.2 District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court today with a spring in his step, as the weight of a wounding charge was removed from around his neck.
Micah Laron Chase, of Gully Field Avenue, Bayland, St Michael, who was charged with maliciously wounding Michael Dalrymple back in 2016, was told by Magistrate Douglas Frederick that he was free to go after the virtual complainant failed appear.
Chase’s attorney, Andrew Pilgrim, QC, pointed out that the matter had been dragging on for sometime and that even though the complainant was previously warned by the police to appear in court, he had shown no inclination to give testimony in the two-year-old matter.
The post Chase freed of wounding charge appeared first on Barbados Today.
