Deejay Bounty Killer is to appear in the Gun Court on July 12, when he is to be tried on illegal possession of a firearm and wounding charges.

The trial date for the deejay, whose real name is Rodney Price, was set yesterday when the matter was mentioned in court.

He was charged last year in connection with an incident that reportedly occurred in September 2007.

The allegations are that on September 27, an off-duty policeman left a club on St Lucia Avenue in New Kingston, St Andrew, about 4:50 a.m, but reportedly noticed some cars blocking a section of the road.

Several men including Price and the now deceased dancer David Alexander Smith, more popularly known as 'Ice', were allegedly at the scene.

The policeman is said to have tried to get the men to move the vehicles but was reportedly assaulted and fired at.
