19 year old confesses to having illegal gun & ammo
Winter confessed to unlawfully having a firearm and ammunition when he was brought before the court on February 1, 2017 and was further remanded until February 10, when he will be sentenced by Magistrate Ayana O. Baptiste-DaBreo.
This second brush with the law for the young man came after he was released from jail where he and a few other men were held in relation to a gun incident. They were allegedly found with a gun in the Ghetto/Crabbe Lot area. That matter is still ongoing.
In this latest incident, police reportedly operating on intelligence on January 31, 2017, pounced on Winter's home in Long Trench, Tortola and uncovered a loaded magazine and a 45mm gun. Four others were said to have been at the home at the time but were released as police continued their investigation.
Winter is facing a maximum sentence of five years imprisonment or as much as $50,000 fine.
