Last week, we told you about the home invasion at Driftwood Bay, the small community at mile 4 and a half on the Northern Highway.
20 year-old Chris Reyes, who was shot by police while he was fleeing from the home invasion, was arraigned and remanded yesterday.
Reyes, a resident of King Street, was discharged from the KHMH on Wednesday and handed into police custody where he was charged with 1 count of aggravated burglary.
In court, Reyes pleaded not guilty to the charge, and he was represented by attorney Dickey Bradley. Due to the nature of the offense, however, he could not be granted bail, and he was remanded until May 2.
As we reported, at around 10:30 p.m. on March 5, 4 men entered the home of the Donaire family.
These robbers were looking for money and firearms but they couldn't find any. They were scared off by of a family friend who was contacted by one of the female victims who locked herself in one of the bedrooms, and called for help.
While they were trying to escape, police had already arrived on scene. Reyes, who was one of the fleeing men, was shot in the shoulder when he tried to jump the Donaire's fence. He was later detained, taken to KHMH for treatment, and placed under police guard.
