Man arrested for assault and … mooning
Apparently, a Wallaceburg man was so incensed his apartment was being inspected that he felt the need to moon the inspection team.
Chatham-Kent police say they got the call shortly after 10 a.m. Wednesday morning for the incident on Wallace Street in Wallaceburg.
Police say they learned the man became upset and engaged in a verbal argument with three people when they arrived to conduct a scheduled inspection on the man’s apartment.
The three people left the apartment before completing the inspection. As the people walked away the man followed. The man spat in the face of one, took another person’s hat and threw it at the third person, striking them in the face, police say.
The three victims continued to walk away and at that moment, the man pulled down his pants and exposed his butt to the victims, police say.
A 44-year-old Wallaceburg man was arrested and charged with theft, two counts of assault and three counts of indecent acts.
