AN 18-year-old was sent to prison yesterday after being accused of two armed robberies in Nassau last week.

Ricardo Francique, represented by Alphonso Lewis, faced Magistrate Samuel McKinney on two counts of armed robbery and one count of receiving.

On April 25, he is accused of robbing Cranston Russell, Jr, of his grey iPhone 12 Pro Max, an iPhone 13, as well as $70 in cash while being concerned with another.

On the same day, Francique is  alleged to have stolen Q’Desha Pratt’s pink iPhone 13 at gunpoint. Later that day, he was arrested after being found with three iPhones valued at $2,400.

Francique was sent to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services. His case will be moved to the Supreme Court by Voluntary Bill of Indictment, set to be served on June 29.
