G/town man charged for stabbing neighbour

A SOUTH Cummingburg, Georgetown resident was on Friday remanded to prison by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan for stabbing his neighbour with a knife.Oswald Andrews, 34, of Queen Street, South Cummingburg, was not required to plead to the charge, which alleged that he on July 19, 2016 unlawfully and maliciously wounded Wrenford Coleridge with intent to murder him. According to reports, Coleridge was allegedly watching television when he was confronted by his neighbour Andrews.
Andrews was unrepresented. Police Prosecutor Corporal Deniro Jones opposed bail since the victim, Coleridge, was still in a critical condition at the hospital.
Jones disclosed that Coleridge had suffered stabs to his head, chest and abdomen. The chief magistrate ruled in the prosecution’s favour and remanded Andrews until September 5, 2016.
