The Defence Force officer accused of pulling a gun on a woman outside a Prince Charles Drive nightclub is heading to court today.

The 21-year-old will be arraigned at 3pm, charged with possession of a firearm with intent to put another in fear. The incident on Monday was caught on video and went viral.

In The Bahamas, possession of a firearm (or imitation firearm) with intent to put another person in fear carries a statutory sentencing range of 10 to 15 years upon conviction on information in the Supreme Court, or 2 to 10 years upon summary conviction in the Magistrate's Court.
