Bar operator 34-year-old Nigel Bailey, otherwise called ‘Curtis’, has been charged after allegedly using a gun to inflict wounds to his brother during a dispute.

Bailey was charged on Sunday with assault at common law, illegal possession of firearm and unlawful wounding.

The charges stemmed from a Wednesday, July 29 incident.
