Three of the four people arrested in connection with the recent armed violence and a stabbing in the subway of St. John’s has been released on bail.
Robert Belbin and Brandon Chafe, 20, and Ashton Whalen, 18, had relatives provide cash and pledged to report any breach of the conditions of release.
For now, Whalen is only charged with breach of court order.
Abigail Gillingham, 19, is expected to follow suit this morning in provincial court.

Belbin is charged with aggravated assault and robbery with violence in connection with a stabbing on George Street, while others face charges ranging from trafficking to illicit possession and use of illegal weapons .
The arrests were made in recent days, shortly after the shootings in an apartment building and a house in the far east, which was also bombed.
Police also confiscated several firearms from the Brookfield Road area in connection with the investigation, which includes incidents dating back to May 13th.
The RNC suggests that more arrests are pending.
