Antonio Headley

Antonio Headley, 20, appeared yesterday at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court before Senior Magistrate Leron Daly where he was charged with robbery under arms.

It is alleged that on Wednesday, August 16, at Battery Road, Kingston, Georgetown, Headley while being armed with a knife, robbed Ricardo Boris of one Samsung Galaxy A03 cellular phone valued $35,000 and $10,000 cash.

The defendant pleaded guilty with explanation. He told the court that he did not rob anyone and it was his friend who did the robbery. “After I ask he for a drop and he rob the man, I told him to put me off at the corner, by the time I was walking just like that a car knock me down,” he told the court.
