Keiron Hinds

A plumber was yesterday remanded to prison on charges that he had a loaded unlicensed pistol, which police say he fired in a public place.

Keiron Hinds, 25, of Lot 4 Smyth Street, Werk-en-Rust, was brought before Principal Magistrate Judy Latchman, who read the charges to him.

The first charge alleged that Hinds on April 16th, at Fifth Street, Alberttown, had a Taurus pistol in his possession without being the holder of a firearm licence.
