Inspector Walton Banner Goes Before Lower Court

Thirty-six-year-old Walton Banner, a police inspector, appeared before the court today in the presence of attorney Ronell Gonzalez, to answer to a charge of obstruction.  It is the second time he is appearing before the lower court on a similar offense.  On April first, it was alleged that Banner intervened when Corporal Shane Cabral attempted to arrest Julian Reynolds at the Castleton Race Track in Burrell Boom Village.  When he subsequently appeared before a Senior Magistrate, Banner pleaded not guilty and was offered bail in the sum of one thousand dollars, plus one surety of the same amount.  Earlier today, he sought an adjournment which the magistrate granted.  He is due back in court on June seventh.
