A MAN and a woman were granted bail after allegedly being found with a loaded gun in their home by police responding to a domestic incident.
Magistrate Lennox Coleby charged Nathaniel Ferguson, 29, and Tanikee Hinds, 32, with possession of an unlicensed firearm and possession of ammunition with intent to supply.
Officers reportedly arrested the pair at a residence in Chippingham on the night of November 21 after police found a black Ruger .380 pistol and 28 rounds of .380 ammunition.
After pleading not guilty, the accused’s bail was set at $9,900 with one or two sureties. Under this bail, Ferguson must sign in at the Nassau Street Police Station every Wednesday and Friday by 7pm. Hinds must sign in at the Wulff Road Police Station every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. She was also ordered to surrender her Jamaican travel documents.
The trial in this matter begins on December 12.
