TWENTY-FOUR-YEAR-OLD Patrice Deisha Downes, who was accused of harbouring shooter Reco Omar Grimes, was released on bail when she appeared in the District “A” Magistrates’ Court yesterday.
Grimes was charged with discharging a firearm in the Fairchild Street market on August 11.
Downes of Hothersal Terrace, St Michael, was not required to plead to the charge that knowing or believing that Reco Grimes had committed serious bodily harm, she did an act with intent to impede his apprehension or prosecution, sometime between August 11 and 12.
There was no objection to bail, and Magistrate Cuffy-Sargeant released her with two sureties of $5 000 each.
Downes, who was represented by Angella Mitchell-Gittens, was ordered to report to Central Police Station every Wednesday. The accused returns to court on November 22. (BARBADOS NATION)
