‘Gun Skool’ charged with firearm offences

KINGSTON, Jamaica – A 25-year-old vendor has been charged with gun-related offences following a late-night incident.

Upon reaching very close to the man, Leslie reportedly pointed a firearm at him. In fear for his life, the man ran and escaped unhurt.

A report was made to the police on Monday, February 3, Leslie was accosted and taken into custody. He was formally charged after a question-and-answer session in the presence of his attorney.

He has been charged with possession of a prohibited weapon, using a firearm to commit a felony and assault at common law.
