A 17-YEAR-OLD man was granted $7,500 bail after allegedly being found with a loaded gun last weekend in New Providence.
Senior Magistrate Algernon Allen Jr arraigned the teenage defendant, whose name is being withheld because he is a minor, on charges of possession of an unlicensed firearm and possession of ammunition.
The juvenile’s guardian was present for his arraignment.
The defendant was allegedly found with a black Austrian Glock .40 pistol and ten rounds of ammunition on August 10.
The accused pleaded not guilty to both charges. Under the terms of his bail, he must obey a residential curfew from 7pm to 7am.
The trial is scheduled to begin on October 23.
