Kent Thomas Mitchel who on February 7, 2022, was arrested at the Woodbridge Bay Port in Fond Cole after Customs discovered 150 live rounds of 9mm ammunition in a barrel he attempted to clear has pleaded guilty to the summary charge of “importation of ammunition.”.
Mitchel from the village of Bellevue was slapped with a summary charge of importation of 150 rounds of 9mm ammunition with him not being the holder of a firearms import licence. He elected to have a summary trial in the Magistrate’s Court.
The facts of the matter will be read on Friday, February 11, 2022, before Magistrate Gloria Augustus and sentencing will follow thereafter.
The police also charged him with “trafficking of 150 rounds of 9mm ammunition” which is an indictable offence to be heard before a judge and jury.
Attorney at law Wayne Norde is representing Mitchel in this matter.
