Ottos Resident Sentenced to 14 Months in Prison for Shootout with Police; Co-Accused Walks Free

Alvin Spencer, a resident of Ottos, has been sentenced to 14 months in His Majesty’s Prison after being remanded and awaiting sentencing.

He was involved in a shootout with police officers, along with another Ottos resident.

The sentencing took place on Tuesday, May 30, in the St. John’s Magistrates Court, presided over by Chief Magistrate Joanne Walsh.

During the court appearance, Spencer, aged 33, received a six-month sentence for the ammunition charge and an additional eight months for possession of hashish.

He had previously been arrested alongside 30-year-old Kadeem Henry following the incident on Wednesday night, May 24.

Spencer pleaded guilty to the possession of 780 grams of hashish and two rounds of 9 mm ammunition.

In contrast, Henry denied the charges, and the prosecution did not present any evidence against him, resulting in his exoneration.

Similarly, Elvis Pelle, aged 21 and a resident of Villa, received a 15-month prison sentence after pleading guilty to charges of possessing a gun and ammunition.
