A CASE in which it was alleged a Lisnaskea man made threats to kill while armed with a machete is no longer proceeding.

David Joyce (42), from Trasna Way, Lisnaskea, had been accused of threatening a male relative and having the weapon with intent to commit grievous bodily harm during an incident on March 16.

However, at the most recent sitting of Enniskillen Magistrates Court on Monday, a prosecuting lawyer said the matter had been reviewed and a decision taken not to continue.

Deputy District Judge Greg McCourt ordered the charges to be withdrawn. No reason was provided for the move.
