THE MAN WHO allegedly staged a daylight armed robbery at the Royal Bank of Canada, University Drive, St Michael branch last Friday, has been remanded to the Psychiatric Hospital.

Shaquon John Jose Cave, of Flagstaff Road, St Michael, appeared in the District “A” Magistrates’ Court yesterday, charged with stealing $5 905 belonging to the bank while armed with a sword.

Cave, 22, who was reportedly held by two civilians when he allegedly ran out of the bank, was not required to plea to the indictable matter when he went before Magistrate Douglas Frederick.

Attorney at law Allan Carter made a request to the court that his client be examined.

The request was granted and the case adjourned until September 22.
