Nassau suspect remanded over triple murder and shootout with police

A 20-year-old Nassau man has been remanded to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services after appearing in court on charges of murdering three people and attempting to murder three others during a 20-hour period in August, jamaica-gleaner.com reports.

Milton Burrows Jr faced acting Chief Magistrate Ancella Evans on the charges and was not required to enter a plea. The matter will proceed to the Supreme Court through a voluntary bill of indictment, with his next court date set for February 18, 2027.

Prosecutors allege that Burrows and accomplices shot and killed Kimbo Guerrier, 51, outside an apartment complex on August 21. The following day, August 22, 52-year-old Samuel Pascal was found inside his apartment with multiple gunshot wounds. A third victim, Eric Stuart, 36, was also killed on August 22, according to the prosecution.

Police tracked down a vehicle carrying Burrows and three others, including a woman. The prosecution alleges the suspects opened fire on officers, prompting an exchange of gunfire. Burrows is charged with attempting to murder Constable Leon King, Able Seaman Raynaldo Pinder, and Marine Seaman Lerecus Armbrister during that confrontation.

Three suspects fled by jumping a fence. The female suspect was later found hiding beneath a bus and taken into custody.

Burrows' co-accused, Diamonique Webster, 18, was arraigned last month and faces an extensive list of charges: three counts of murder, three counts of attempted murder, three counts of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life, three counts of possession of an unlicensed firearm, two counts of possession of ammunition, armed robbery, abetment to armed robbery, stealing, and receiving.

Burrows was advised of his right to apply for bail in the higher court before being remanded until February 18, 2027, when the voluntary bill of indictment is expected to be served.
