A MAN denied illegally dumping waste in wetlands near Marshall Road West last month.

Prosecutors allege that Shaquoan Storr, 31, dumped green waste and damaged the environment near Bonefish Pond on January 11.

Storr pleaded not guilty to charges of illegal dumping and environmental damage before Chief Magistrate Roberto Reckley.

He was informed that he is due back in court on March 25.

Magistrate Reckley warned that if Storr fails to appear on that date, a warrant will be issued for his arrest.

Before his initial court appearance, Storr was issued a $20,000 spot fine for environmental damage, which he refused to pay before the January 27 deadline.

A video, said to show Storr dumping materials near the wetlands while being told to stop by authorities from a red Mack heavy-duty truck, circulated on social media.

Assistant Superintendent of Police Forrester Carroll prosecuted the case.
