A miner charged with committing a violent robbery was granted bail last Friday after he denied the charge and told a city court that he only punched the victim.
Dennel Todd, 24, of Linden, appeared before Principal Magistrate Faith McGusty and was charged with robbery with violence.
It is alleged that on January 30th, 2020, at 11 Miles, Mahdia, he robbed Michael Peters of $5,000 cash and at the time of or immediately before or after the robbery, he used personal violence towards Peters.
