Pigotts man owes over $2K for chopping his friend
A 33-year-old man from Pigotts has been fined $1,000 and ordered to pay compensation in the same amount for wounding his fellow villager and friend.
The sentence was passed down on Monday by Magistrate Ngaio Emanuel-Edwards in the All Saints Magistrate’s Court.
Last week, Cecil Hixon admitted to chopping his “friend” with a cutlass on May 1.
According to the facts of the case, on the night in question, Hixon arrived in the vicinity of the Pigotts playing field where the complainant and some friends were sitting and drinking alcohol.
For an unknown reason, Hixon began pushing the complainant to the point where the complainant threatened to contact a friend for him.
