He admitted assaulting his ex girlfriend occasioning her actual bodily harm on January 8, 2019, but he will have to wait until tomorrow to know his fate.
Ryan O’neal Wood, a 34-year-old painter of Braggs Hill, St Joseph, yesterday appeared in the District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court before Acting Magistrate, Anika Jackson and pleaded guilty to the charge of assaulting Simone Gittens of Jackson Terrace, Stage 2, St Michael.
According to prosecutor, PC Kenmore Phillips, the two are the parents of an 11-year-old boy. During the week, the secondary school student stays with his mother. He has a little sister on his mother’s side and she requested that he collect the little girl from school. However the girl’s father was
against it.
On January, 8, 2019, Wood picked up his son from school and the boy’s mother
called her son and quarrelled with him because he did not collect his sister. Later, Wood took home his son and the boy’s mother started quarrelling and Wood held her by the throat.
The complainant was not in court, and the Magistrate adjourned the matter and granted bail to Wood in the sum of $750.
