A homeless young man was yesterday placed on a restraining order after a court heard that he pointed a knife at a man while threatening him.
Joel Standford, 22, appeared at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court where Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan read a threatening behaviour charge to him before suggesting that he speak with a probation officer and receive public assistance.
It is alleged that on June 15, at Lot 81 David Street, Kitty, Georgetown, he used threatening behaviour towards Phillip Adams. He pleaded not guilty to the charge.
