TWO TEENAGERS were remanded in custody yesterday after they allegedly robbed a convenience store earlier this month.

Senior Magistrate Algernon Allen Jr arraigned Dwayne Marshall, 19, and a 16-year-old male, whose name is being withheld due to him being a minor, for armed robbery.

The juvenile’s guardians were present for their arraignment.

The pair while armed with a handgun allegedly robbed a cashier of $400 cash belonging to LDM Convenience Store in New Providence on August 4.

The duo were informed that their matter would move to the Supreme Court through a voluntary bill of indictment (VBI). 

The VBIs will be served on December 4. Until then, the juvenile defendant will be remanded to the Simpson Penn Centre for Boys while Marshall will be remanded to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services.

Alex Dorsett represented the accused.
