Forty-nine-year-old Raymond Whittingham of Arnett Gardens, St Andrew, has been charged with assault at common law and possession of a prohibited weapon following an alleged incident in his community on Wednesday, January 1.

Reports from the Denham Town police are that about 9:37 pm, Whittingham and a woman had a disagreement, during which he left, returned and held onto a firearm in his waistband.

The alleged actions reportedly made the woman fearful for her life, and she managed to escape without injuries, and made a report to the police.

On Thursday, January 2 an operation was conducted in the community, which led to the subsequent arrest of Whittingham.

His court date is being finalised.
