THE court yesterday dismissed simple larceny, assault and threatening language charges against a man yesterday after no evidence was offered in the matter. Construction worker Granato Grenville (no address given), made his appearance before City Magistrate Fabayo Azore to answer the charges laid against him, and he pleaded not guilty to each one.
One of the charges said that on June 11th at Amelia’s Ward, Linden, he stole one Blackberry Torch cellular phone with a charger, to the total value of $45,000, property of Andrea LaFleur.
It is also alleged that on the same day at Lot 56 Central Amelia’s Ward, he unlawfully assaulted LaFleur. In addition, he also made use of threatening language to LaFleur, whereby a breach of the peace may be occasioned.
Grenville was represented by attorney-at-law Mr. Adrian Thompson. He informed the court that the mother of his client’s child did not wish to offer any evidence against him and so the matters were dismissed.
