A Pembroke man arrested for threatening a club owner with a machete because he was denied a beer will wait six weeks for sentencing after Acting Senior Magistrate Carlisle Greaves yesterday ordered social inquiry and psychiatric reports be prepared.

Tamiko Wainwright, 26, of Union Street pleaded guilty to brandishing a machete while threatening Champions' owner Delvin Bean, and possession of the offensive weapon.

Crown counsel Shakira Dill told the court Wainwright approached the bar at Champions at roughly 5:45 a.m. on May 19 and demanded a beer.

When he was refused he became abusive and was told to leave the late night club.

Ms Dill said Wainwright turned to club security and said he would be coming back to get them.

He returned brandishing a machete and making threats.

When Police attended the scene, Wainwright attempted to allude arrest, speeding off on a bike and leading officers on a high-speed chase.

Police caught up with him at Happy Valley Road and seized the machete.

"They beat me up," Wainwright said to Police when arrested.

A search later revealed Wainwright was also carrying a horsewhip tucked inside his pants. He told Police the whip was for his own protection, Ms Dill said.

Wainwright also pleaded guilty to three traffic offences related to the chase - driving without a valid licence, failing to stop for Police officers and driving dangerously.

Wainwright told the court nothing like this had ever happened to him before.

"I am sorry for my actions," he said. "I was highly upset. He struck me first and then his bouncers came at me."

Mr. Greaves said if being denied a beer gets a man so upset, he must have something wrong with him.

He ordered that the two reports be prepared by Probation Services and presented to the court on June 24 in order than Wainwright be sentenced.

"A man brandishing a machete because of a beer, that is a dangerous man," Mr. Greaves said.
