A MIDDLE-AGED man was granted bail yesterday after he was allegedly found carrying a knife on Market Street earlier this week.

Senior Magistrate Shaka Serville arraigned Charles Wallace on charges of unlawfully carrying arms and vagrancy.

Wallace was reportedly found with a knife on Market Street at 2am on September 3, unable to explain.

On the same date and location, he was also accused of vagrancy.

Although Wallace appeared dazed initially, he pleaded not guilty to both charges and told the magistrate that he had a place to stay, despite not being reflected in the case file.

His bail was set at $500 with one or two sureties. Wallace is due back in court for trial on December 11.
