A TEENAGER denied his involvement in a near-fatal shooting on Hay Street earlier this year.

Prosecutors allege Zion Dawkins, 19, and accomplices attempted to shoot and kill Keondre Barnette with a handgun on the night of April 16.

Dawkins pleaded not guilty to charges of attempted murder and possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life before Justice Guillimina Archer-Minns.

He was informed that his case would proceed before Justice Loren Klein, before whom he will appear for a trial date fixture on September 22.

The accused will remain on remand at the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services.
