Holiday Weekend: 42 Arrests For Warrants
While most the community enjoyed their National Heroes holiday weekend, 42 people probably did not as they were in Police custody after being arrested for outstanding warrants.
A Police spokesman said, :”Over the National Heroes holiday weekend there were 3 people arrested on suspicion of impaired driving. Police officers also arrested 42 people for outstanding warrants and conducted 16 liquor license checks at various liquor licensed premises throughout the island.”
so if I get arrested for not paying a moving violation, can I pay the outstanding fine at the police station or do I have to 2 wait until next court session.
minor violations like that can be dealt with at the Police station. More serious warrants like assault that require you to see the magistrate the next time court open cant be paid, but you can get bailed if you call a lawyer who then calls a Magistrate. This process costs about $300 – $350.
