Men admit threat offences

Thursday, 11 May 2017 00:00

Two men from the south of the Island have pleaded guilty to causing another man to believe he was at risk of violence.

Shane Paul Fayle and Rabelani Collen Nyamande, who are both 19, appeared at Douglas Courthouse last week.

They admitted causing the man to believe they were going to use immediate and unlawful violence after an incident outside Port Erin Co-op on March 5th.

The two men, from Port Erin Promenade and The Level in Colby respectively, will next appear in court on May 18th when a basis of plea will be submitted; they've been bailed until then.
