A Paget man has been accused of entering a woman’s home and stealing her phone.

Cleveland Rogers, 47, pleaded not guilty in Magistrates’ Court yesterday morning to trespass and taking a white Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini worth $500 from a home in Sandys.

Mr Rogers was remanded into custody and will appear again before Senior Magistrate Archibald Warner on September 8.

In a separate case, Mr Rogers appeared before Mr Warner in Magistrates’ Court yesterday afternoon and pleaded not guilty to threatening his ex-girlfriend, Catrina Card.

Ms Card, the mother of Mr Rogers’s six-year-old daughter, said he made a threatening gesture in the grounds of Purvis Primary School in Warwick on January 7.

Being questioned by prosecutor Loxly Ricketts, she said he was waiting on his motorcycle in the parking lot of the school when she dropped her daughter off that day.

“We weren’t together at that time, we had broken up,” Ms Card said. “I sent my daughter to speak to her father.”

Ms Card said he was about ten feet away from her when he threatened her.

“He got off the bike, took the keys out of the ignition and held them in his fingers and pointed his hand in my direction,” she said.

“He said, ‘you don’t know what the f*** I feel like doing to you’. He was shaking and that’s how he gets when he’s angry. I was very, very nervous.”

Ms Card said she had split up with Mr Rogers about four-and-a-half years ago.

She said that before he appeared at the school in January, he had not seen his daughter since last October and she did not want him to have contact with her.

Defending himself, Mr Rogers told the court he had only wanted to see his child.

“I started to walk her to class,” he said. “I did have a little attitude but I didn’t point my keys or anything to you. I was only gesturing.”

Mr Warner adjourned the trial until September 23.
