P.U.P. Activist Albert Vaughan Back In Court for Loitering and Illegal Gathering

Albert Vaughan

P.U.P. activist Albert Vaughan, who was arrested on Monday along with dozens of disgruntled B.M.L. employees for loitering and participating in an illegal gathering, was back in court this morning to answer to charges brought against him.  Vaughn, you would recall, was covering a spur-of-the-moment protest in front of City Hall where angry sanitation workers had dumped litter on the street.  The opinionated radio personality was arrested on Queen Street later that morning when he followed behind a company bus in which the employees were riding.  This morning, a group of supporters congregated outside the courts where Vaughn’s case was subsequently adjourned.

“We’re here as a part of the P.U.P. family to support Lieutenant Vaughn who, as you know, he was wrongly charged with loitering a few days ago when he was out there working on behalf of the People’s United Party.  So we’re here in solidarity with him, to support him and we went into the magistrates’ court and they set October seventh, I believe, as the date for the hearing of his matter.”

Vaughn has been granted bail in the sum of a hundred and fifty dollars and will return to court on October seventh.
