A MAN was accused yesterday of a fatal shooting on Harbour Island last June that left one man dead and another injured.

Prosecutors allege Jamaine Grant, 25, conspired with others to commit murder and attempted murder on Harbour Island, Eleuthera, on June 10, 2025.

Grant and his alleged accomplices are accused of shooting and killing 25-year-old Cameron Bannister while he was driving a golf cart on Munnings Street that day.

Grant is also accused of shooting and injuring Cassius Turnquest, who was riding in the same vehicle.

Turnquest was airlifted to New Providence for treatment, while Bannister died from his injuries at a local clinic.

Grant’s co-accused, Junior Norvil, 24, and Johnson Versane, 26, were arraigned for the offences last year.

Grant was not required to enter pleas to charges of murder, attempted murder and conspiracy to commit murder before Assistant Chief Magistrate Kara Turnquest-Deveaux.

He was informed that the matter would proceed to the Supreme Court through a voluntary bill of indictment (VBI).

Grant was also informed of his right to apply for bail through the Supreme Court.

He was remanded to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services until service of his VBI on October 15.

Corporal Moultrie prosecuted the case.
