A lower grade footballer for the Wests Tigers has been granted bail after being charged over an incident that allegedly resulted in a gun being fired during a home invasion.
Iverson Fuatimau, a Western Suburbs winger who trained with the Tigers’ top squad over the summer after being given a train-and-trial contract, was granted bail after being charged with one count of specially aggravated break and enter with intent.
Two other men, Lofu Namulauulu, 25, and Joseph Pesa have been charged over an alleged home invasion that resulted in a man being threatened at gunpoint on Wednesday at St Helens Park.
It’s alleged that Fuatimau drove the other two men to an address in Fullerton Circuit, where they attempted to rob the occupant. Fuatimau’s high-profile lawyer, Elias Tabchouri, was adamant Iverson wasn’t aware of Namulauulu and Pesa’s intentions when he drove them to the premises in a maroon Haval H2.
Iversen was on Thursday granted bail on strict conditions after Tabchouri told a bail hearing that the 22 year old didn’t have criminal history, was battling mental health conditions and wasn’t aware that his companions were carrying firearms.
An NRL spokesperson said that Wests Tigers had informed the integrity unit of the matter.
