Masons placed on bonds after City fight

Two Jamaican nationals who were arrested after a brawl over a slur on Fairchild Street last Friday have been placed on 12-month bonds after pleading guilty to causing a disturbance.

Fitzroy Anthony Allwood, 38, of Skeetes Road, Bank Hall, and Carl St Clair Amos, 42, of Eagle Hall, both admitted causing a disturbance on Fairchild Street, a highway.

The No. 2 District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court heard that both masons were in the area known as Vincy Town when Amos approached Allwood and called him by a derogatory slur. A fight broke out, causing a crowd to gather, and bystanders separated the men. Police arrived and arrested and charged the pair.
