Did he miss the jail cell?
A man, only recently released from custody, ran afoul of the law not once, but twice yesterday.
On March 17, 2021 the man was released from custody with several conditions. One of those conditions stated that he was not to communicate with a specific Wallaceburg man.
Yesterday afternoon, Chatham-Kent police say the man attended the area where the Wallaceburg man lives and yelled at him while in the parking lot.
Police were called and the man was arrested. While in custody, the man caused approximately $500 to the rear of the cruiser.
A 26-year-old man of no fixed address was charged with failing to comply with his release conditions and mischief. He was held in custody pending a bail hearing and released from Court with several conditions.
Mere hours later, last night, the man returned to the same area in Wallaceburg regardless of being on conditions not to attend that area. He was arrested again and charged with failing to comply with his release conditions.
He has been held in custody pending a bail hearing.
Assault charges
Last night, police responded to a disturbance at a residence in Tilbury.
Through investigation, police learned that a verbal argument between two men, known to each other, resulted in the accused spitting in the victim’s face.
