DANCEHALL artist Bounty Killer walked away from the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court a free man today after an assault case against him was dropped.

Bounty Killer, whose real name is Rodney Pryce, was arrested and charged for beating up his girlfriend, Kadeem Baker, who had indicated to the court that she was no longer interested in pursuing the case.

Police then charged Baker for creating public mischief and informed the court that she was being pressured by associates of Pryce to drop the case.

On the morning of his arrest in April Pryce reportedly called Baker and threatened her in full hearing of the police. He spent two weeks behind bars.
