A 19-year-old male and a 17-year-old female were arrested Saturday night in Mount Pearl on multiple assault charges.
Adam Jonathon Hickey and the 17-year-old (who cannot be identified) both made separate court appearances in St. John's this morning.
Police responded to a tip concerning an assault already in progress at 10 p.m., according to the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary overnight report.
Hickey faces 10 charges relating to Saturday's alleged events — three for assault, one for assault with a weapon (a knife), three for uttering threats, two for recognizance breaches, and another for failing to comply with a probation order.
He remains in police custody and is due to appear in court on Monday for a bail hearing.
The female youth has been charged with assault, resisting arrest, assaulting an officer, escaping police custody, causing a disturbance, and breaching the conditions of a youth sentence.
She was released on an undertaking. Her next scheduled youth court appearance is on Aug. 21.





Not that I care about the 19 year old's feelings, but I find the Telegram grossly hypocritical about their comment poilicy. If I said some politician, well-known person, or a union quack a "piece of crap" such as the not-so "original townie" named of the 19 year old, the good ol Telegram would strike the entire comment. I suppose thats only fair, those poor well-knowns have very tender skins it seems; goes without saying but the public eye is for the thick skinned or for those who can actually condiser the source of criticism before they decide to be upset about it first. As for political watcher...its Simms fault is it??? Of course its not the parents, the school or legal systems...no no not at all....its definitely the public in general, we just allow it and fret over a criminal's rights...I'm sorry but if you want to live outside the law you've already forfeited your rights.
