20 year-old Evanson Walkin plead guilty in the Supreme Court
After a two-day trial, Evanson Walkin, who was arrested and charged with two (2) counts of Carrying Imitation Firearm to cause fear and Aggravated Burglary changed his not guilty plea to guilty on all counts.
It was around 12 AM on Saturday 26th September 2015, a nine (9) year-old male child and his 25-year-old sister was walking home from a store in Five Cays Providenciales when Mr. Evanson Walkin began following them. Upon reaching home, Mr. Walkin who appeared to be under the influence of alcohol started behaving aggressively by making used of indecent language, forced himself into the home of the complainant. While inside, the complainant sister asked him to leave, but he refused to do so. Instead, he grabbed her by the arm, dragged her to the floor and place a curtain over her head.
When the 9-year-old tried to assist his sister by asking Evanson to stop, he (Evanson) took what appeared to be an orange flare gun from his waist and placed it on the right eye of the child and threaten to push him outside and kill him.
The child got frightened and started screaming as he ran outside crying and shaking with fear. Mr. Walkin followed him and began beating him. While doing so, a neighbor saw what was happening asked him to leave the little boy alone. He then pointed the flare gun at the neighbor and told her he would kill her as well.
He then fled the scene.
As a result of this, around 12 PM the next day, the accused was seen at his home in Five Cays and was arrested and later Charged.
He is remanded until sentencing on the 11th October 2016 at 9:30 am.
