Jason Jupiter

A 23-year-old man was yesterday remanded to prison after he was read charges of attempted murder, armed robbery, and firearm use, one of the incidents stemming from an attack on two Kitty market vendors in March.

Jason Jupiter, 23, of Lot 8, West Front Road, was brought before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan, who read the three charges to him.

The first charge against the accused stated that he, on March 2, at Laing Avenue, discharged a loaded firearm at Randy Sampson, with intent to commit murder.
