One of three Hamilton teens charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of another teenaged boy earlier this year has been granted bail.

The 16-year-old, who cannot be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, is accused in the death of 17-year-old Abdalla Hassan on April 15, 2019.

Details of the bail hearing, including evidence discussed and reasons for bail, cannot be reported because of a publication ban.

The Spectator has previously reported that Hassan was found shot in the head in his family's car that had crashed down a densely wooded embankment off Patterson Road in rural Dundas (south of Clappison's Corners).

Three teens were seen walking away from the abandoned vehicle. Less than an hour after police found the body, two 16-year-olds and a 15-year-old were arrested walking out of the woods on York Road.

In court on Tuesday, the 16-year-old had a number of family and friends in support.

He was released on a pledge of a combined $102,500 from three sureties — his grandparents and an aunt, who promised to monitor the teen.

Conditions of his release include living with his grandparents and not leaving the house, except in the presence of his sureties or to go to school.

He's prohibited from coming to Hamilton, except to attend court; is not allowed to associate with people that have criminal or youth records; and cannot possess weapons.

There are a long list of people he's prohibited from communicating with, including his two co-accuseds, who remain in custody.

All three teens return to court Jan. 27, 2020.
