John James Perriott Sr., a truck and bus driver of Sandhill Village, was arraigned yesterday afternoon in the Belize City Magistrate’s Court. He appeared before a Senior Magistrate in Court #2, where he was read a single charge of common assault.
It is alleged that on Wednesday, February 18, 2026, at Mile 19 ¾, Perriott Sr. committed an assault upon his ex-girlfriend.
