The Police have released a statement stating that Akeem Sage of Central Fiennes Avenue, McKnight, St. Kitts, has been arrested and charged with the offence of Robbery.

The criminal act in question was committed on April 29th, 2023. He was charged following the execution of a search warrant on his home on May 12th, 2023. The warrant permitted the Royal St. Christopher and Nevis Police Force (RSCNPF) and the St. Kitts and Nevis Defence Force (SKNDF) to search Mr. Sage’s home and its immediate environs for weapons, illegal drugs, and other items suspected of being used in the commission of a crime.

According to the release, the search of his home resulted in the discovery of one (1) Smith & Wesson Revolver Handgun whose barrel contained five (5) .32 calibre rounds of live ammunition. The search was extended to an abandoned building adjacent to Mr. Sage’s home.

This search resulted in the finding of one (1) “Jansport” backpack along with a mask and other articles of clothing. These and other items of evidential value were collected by the Crime Scene Unit of the RSCNPF.

In an update, new charges have been brought forth against Akeem Sage of Central Fiennes Avenue, Basseterre, St. Kitts. Mr. Sage received an additional three (3) charges for Possession of Firearm, Possession of Ammunition, and another charge for Robbery.
