On Wednesday, 7News told you that police had 4 minors detained in connection with 46 year-old Emerito Itza, a resident of San Pedro who died of injuries he sustained in a brawl last week Wednesday. Well tonight, those 4 minors, one of them a 14 year old in Standard six and three of them 15 are all at prison after they were taken to family court today.
They were arraigned this afternoon in the presence of their parents and their attorney, Simeon Sampson, on a single count of manslaughter not murder. Due to the nature of the offence, they were all remanded to prison until November 20.
As we reported, at around 7 p.m., Itza and 24 year-old Marwin Lizama were hanging out on the beach at the eastern end of Sand Piper Street.
They were attacked by a group of young men, one of whom grabbed piece of wood and hit both men in the head.
Itza was taken to the KHMH, where he succumbed to his injuries on Monday.
