for armed robbery and causing harm. |
It is alleged that
Trevor Alexander Davis (40) owner of Alpha Sounds ,
along with others, intentionally and unlawfully caused harm
to reggae DJ Leshorn "Chuck Fenda" Whitehead on Monday, Aug.
20. Whitehead was in Nassau for a scheduled Buju
Banton concert that Davis was promoting however after
arriving on island a dispute between the two led to
Whitehead not performing at the concert.
It was also alleged in court that Davis, armed with a
handgun, and others robbed Whitehead of a platinum chain,
valued at $3,000; a Movado watch, valued at $1,000; and $300
in cash.
Davis, a well-known concert promoter in Nassau, appeared
before Chief Magistrate Roger Gomez. Sergeant Alexander
Bannister prosecuted the matter. He was not required to
enter a plea to the charges. A preliminary inquiry will be
held to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to
transfer the matter to the Supreme Court for a jury trial. |
