Brothers Jailed After Brawl - Keino Lambert, 20 and Kevin Lambert, 21 both of Sandys parish appeared in Magistrates’ Court on Monday, February 14th 2011 to stand trial regarding a disturbance that took place outside a North Shore Road, Devonshire nightclub during the early morning hours of Saturday, December 18th 2010 where a Taser and Captor spray had to be deployed by attending police officers.

The Lambert brothers were both charged with affray (for fighting each other) and violently resisting arrest, while one of the brothers faced an additional charge of assaulting a police officer. In their initial court appearance they pled not guilty to all the charges against them and the prosecution offered no evidence regarding the affray.

However, yesterday Senior Magistrate Archibald Warner found Keino Lambert guilty of violently resisting arrest and assaulting police, sentencing him to 10 days imprisonment and 30 days imprisonment respectively. The sentences are to run concurrently, meaning the younger brother will serve 30 days behind bars. His older brother Kevin Lambert was found guilty of violently resisting arrest and sentenced to 10 days imprisonment.
