Magistrate Weaver sentenced Ray to three years’ imprisonment on each of the charges and ordered that the sentences run concurrently.

The court heard that Tyrel Chu and Ishan Singh are a couple and, on the day in question, they were having lunch at the Kingston Seawall when they were attacked from behind by Ray and Ally, the two accused, who shouted: “don’t move or we gon shoot,” while taking away, from the two victims, the items mentioned in the charge.

The couple raised an alarm and a police patrol which was nearby managed to nab the two men. Ally had pleaded guilty and was sentenced to two and a half years’ imprisonment.
