A MAN was granted bail yesterday after being accused of assaulting a woman with a cutlass at his home last week.

Senior Magistrate Algernon Allen Jr arraigned Kevin Moss, 48, on charges of assault with a dangerous instrument and threats of harm.

Moss allegedly attacked Anita McDonald with a cutlass and threatened her on Rose Street at 2.30pm on August 23.

After pleading not guilty, Moss claimed that McDonald had assaulted him with a cutlass when he asked for rent.

Prosecutor Sergeant Vernon Pyfrom did not object to bail, which was set at $3,000 with one or two sureties.

Moss was instructed not to contact the complainant and to sign in at the Fox Hill Police Station every Wednesday by 6pm.

His trial is scheduled for September 20.
