NASSAU-A traffic accident resulted in assault charges for two men.
Errol Knowles and Charles Sweeting Jr. punched Obeltau Pierre in the stomach following the fender bender at Blue Hill Road.
Pierre received non-life-threatening injuries.
Both men admitted the charge at their arraignment before Magistrate Samuel McKinney.
They claimed that Pierre came out of the car “with animosity” and they physically restrained him until police arrived.
McKinney ordered the men to pay Pierre $150 each in compensation to Pierre to avoid three months in prison.
They were directed to keep the peace for six months. Should they get into any trouble during this period, the men will have to pay a $500 fine or spend three months in prison.
