A 23-year-old Pembroke man was remanded into custody today, accused of firing a gun and burglary.

Taariq Clarke, of Middle Terrace Road, was not required to enter a plea in Magistrates’ Court as the charges are indictable.

Mr Clarke is accused of entering a North Shore Road residence in Hamilton Parish on March 14 and stealing an Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy cellphone, and holding a firearm at the time of the burglary.

He is also charged with discharging a firearm.

Senior Magistrate Archibald Warner remanded Mr Clarke into custody.
