Warwick robbery trial ends in hung jury
A 22-year-old-man could face a retrial in a robbery case after a Supreme Court jury failed to reach a verdict yesterday.
Grayson Swan, from Warwick, pleaded not guilty to robbery, as well as to using and handling a firearm after committing an indictable offence.
All offences allegedly occurred on May 8, 2020 in Warwick.
His trial began on March 17 and ended on Wednesday, when the jury was unable to reach a verdict.
Puisne Judge Juan Wolffe discharged the jury and adjourned the case to May 1 when Mr Swan will appear at Supreme Court arraignments.
Mr Swan’s bail was extended until that time.
