WHEN YOU'VE GOT TO GO .. .
CTS When you've got to go ...
Going to the bathroom at the side of the road cost a 33-year-old Devonshire man $400.
"It's not funny, I had to go,'' said Levi Pemberton, of Border Dell, to Magistrate the Wor. Will Francis.
Police prosecutor Sgt. Donald Grant told the court that on the night of January 21, a Police patrol along Vesey Street noticed Pemberton crouching, with his pants down, at the side of the road.
When Police asked Pemberton what he was doing, he replied: "It was an emergency.'' Sgt. Grant said officers noticed some faecal material where Pemberton had been squatting and they took him to Hamilton Police Station, where he was charged for offensive behaviour.
"This is absolutely disgusting,'' said Mr. Francis. "There are a lot of trees in that area, why did you choose the side of the road?''

Inside the pouch were eight separate envelopes, containing plant material, which was later found to be 2.73 grams of cannabis.

SENTENCE SOON FOR ASSAULT ON OFFICERS CTS Sentence soon for assault on officers Eugene Levi Robinson and Kyle Baxter will be sentenced in Supreme Court next week for their part in an assault on two Somerset Policemen.
Robinson, 27, was found guilty of common assault while Baxter, 18, pleaded guilty to assaulting Police constables Santiago and Stanford and causing them grievous bodily harm during an incident on March 12, 1994.
Baxter was remanded in custody pending a social inquiry report but it was not ready on Monday, the initial sentencing date.
His lawyer Mr. Edward Bailey said he needed to see the report before his client was sentenced so that he could make certain submissions in mitigation.
Meanwhile Mr. Archie Warner, who is representing Robinson, said that his client was convicted of a comparatively minor offence of common assault and he was concerned about the length of time he had been in custody.
But Mrs. Justice Wade explained that "her hands were tied,'' and suggested that Mr. Warner should bring up any concerns he had with the Chief Justice at the sentencing.
