NASSAU-A magistrate fined a “homeless” man for not wearing a mask in public.
Cops arrested Joel Major, 20, Wednesday shortly after he claimed his father kicked him out, a court heard.
Officers patrolling Paradise Island near The Four Seasons Hotel arrested the 20-year-old around 4am.
In his police interview Major told investigators that his dad had put him out, so he decided to go for a walk.
Major said he knew about the requirement to wear a mask in public but he forgot to put one on.
He pleaded guilty to breaking the mask order at his arraignment before Magistrate Sandradee Gardiner.
She fined him $200 or two months in prison. Major did not have police bail so he was brought to court in shackles.
