Dancehall entertainer Rodney Pryce, more popularly known as 'Bounty Killer', faced the Gun Court again Friday where the case against him was mentioned.
Bounty Killer is jointly charged with Calis Bowen, an ex-cop, for illegal possession of a firearm and assaulting a police constable, following a 2 year investigation by the St Andrew Central Police.
Investigators reported that on September 27, 2007, the police constable became embroiled in an altercation with a group of men along St. Lucia Avenue in New Kingston after they blocked the road with their vehicles.
The policeman signaled the men to move, however one of them, nicknamed "Ice" allegedly threw alcohol into his face.
The cop then jumped from his vehicle to confront the man when the group of men allegedly attacked him. It is reported that during the confrontation 'Bounty Killer' pulled a firearm and pointed it at the policeman.
Mr. Bowen who was in the artiste's entourage is accused of hitting the Constable in the face and chest. He was later dismissed from the police force. The two are scheduled to return to court on September 30, 2009.
