Detectives assigned to the St Thomas Policing Division have charged a pair of twin brothers with Burglary, Assault Occasioning Actual Bodily Harm and Malicious Destruction of Property following an incident at Crystal City Prospect, St Thomas, on Tuesday, September 22.
They are 32-year-old Romaino and Romario Dawkins, both unemployed of Bamboo Lane, Springfield, Morant Bay, St Thomas.
Reports are that at about 9:00 p.m., a man securely locked his house and retired to bed. He was later awoken by noise inside the house. While making checks, he encountered Romaino and Romario, who attacked him with metal pipes. The man managed to escape and ran from the house.
During the ordeal, two televisions valued at JM$70,000 were damaged.
He subsequently attended the station where he made a report. The scene was processed, and both accused men were arrested and later charged after a question-and-answer session in the presence of their attorneys.
They are scheduled to appear before the Yallahs Parish Court on Friday, October 23.
