ON Friday, we told you about 30 year-old Delone Vernon, an employee of Youth for the Future, who was shot early that morning.
As we reported, Vernon was walking on Ebony Street on his way to work, and when he arrived at the Magazine Road extension, he was approached by 2 men who he recognized.
Vernon told police that one of the men took out a gun and handed over to the next man, who then immediately fired a barrage of shots in his direction, hitting him in the lower abdomen, the left lower back and right upper leg.
Both men escaped, and Vernon managed to get help from a taxi driver who drove him to the hospital, where he continues to receive treatment.
Well, one of the men who police believe were his assailants was 20 year-old Ellis Meighan, a resident of Banak Street. Viewers may recognize Ellis Meighan who - along with his brother, Tyrone - is a regular person of interest to police.
Meighan was charged with attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder, grievous harm, and use of deadly means of harm, and he was arraigned before Magistrate Aretha Ford today.
Due to nature of the offences, Meighan was remanded to prison until December 5. His brother Tyrone is also on remand.
