Dresden woman charged with assault
It took about five months, but Chatham-Kent police found their suspect.
In late may, police investigated an altercation on St. George Street in Dresden.
Officers learned a woman confronted three victims about a property-related issue. The woman threw several items at the victims, attempted to strike one, threatened to harm them, and threatened one victim with a knife, police say.
The officers attempted to locate the woman, but failed, and a warrant was issued for her arrest.
On Monday morning, shortly after 10 a.m., a 24-year-old Dresden woman was arrested on the strength of a warrant. She was charged with mischief, assault, uttering threats to harm and two counts of assault with a weapon.
Stunt driving charge
A Chatham man is without his car for two weeks and without his licence for a month after Chatham-Kent police caught a car blazing along St. Clair Street early Tuesday morning.
Just after 4:30 a.m., an officer clocked a car doing 146 km/h in an 80-km/h zone on St. Clair at the northern tip of Chatham.
On when the lights, and the arrest was made.
A 36-year-old Chatham man was arrested and charged with stunt driving. He was released with a Part-3 Summons to attend court. His vehicle was towed and impounded for 14 days, and his license was suspended for 30 days.
