Magistrates' Court yesterday, after admitting behaving offensively to Police.

Tio Weeks, 18, of Pearman's Hill, Warwick also admitted receiving stolen property and Shannon G. Showers, 22, of Ingham Vale Road, Pembroke admitted violently resisting arrest.

Police approached the pair in Washington Lane after taking a complaint from a man who said he saw his bike being stripped in City Hall parking lot, said Sgt. Earl Kirby, prosecuting.

Weeks responded to Police questioning in an offensive manner, he said.

Showers told the Court that when Police approached Weeks he (Showers) told them that he had been with Weeks for the last two hours.

He also said that Police grabbed him around the neck which prevented him from breathing. "That is why I was trying to get away from them,'' Showers said.

Senior Magistrate the Wor. Will Francis told Showers that he should not have interfered with the Police while they were questioning Weeks. He sentenced him to 100 hours of community service.
