A COUPLE was granted bail after being accused of assaulting each other with firearms last weekend.

Senior Magistrate Shaka Serville arraigned Marnico Hanna, 34, and Krysna Kemp, 27, on charges of assault with a deadly instrument.

Hanna faced an additional charge of damage.

He allegedly assaulted Kemp with a black Glock 45 9mm pistol and damaged the rear windshield of her blue 2016 Chevrolet Malibu on  March 15 in New Providence. The damage to the car was estimated at $315.

Kemp, in turn, allegedly assaulted Hanna with a Smith & Wesson .22 rifle.

Both defendants pleaded not guilty.

Their bail was set at $3,500 with one or two sureties. Under the terms of their bail, both must sign in at their local police station weekly.

The matter was adjourned to Friday for a trial date to be set.

Inspector Cordero Farrington served as the prosecutor.
