Probation Order? What Probation Order?
It appears that’s the mindset of a local man after police nabbed a local dude and charged him with a number of domestic-related offences.
According to police, a man attended his ex-girlfriend’s residence yesterday about 5:30 p.m. and damaged her car.
The woman revealed to officers, police say, that the man had assaulted her earlier this month during an argument.
Through all this, the man is bound by a Probation Order that prohibits him from communicating with her.
To top it all off, as the woman was talking to the officers, police say the man sent her threatening text messages.
Police tracked down their suspect about 11 p.m. Sunday night. During the arrest search, officers found the man to be in possession of a knife.
A 26-year-old Chatham man is charged with mischief, assault, two counts of uttering (texting?) threats and four counts of breach of probation.
Police say he was actually held in custody pending a bail hearing.
