A 54-year-old local man is facing multiple charges after violently assaulting his common-law for wanting to visit family during the holidays.

On December 24, 2017 a witness called 911 after hearing what he believed was a violent domestic. The victim then ran outside, out of breath and asking for the police to be called.

An investigation revealed the accused had allegedly been drinking and became angry with the victim over her wanting to visit family for the holidays. The accused then stole the victim’s cell phone so she could not call family. His behaviour worsened as he grabbed her cat by its fur and threatened to throw it out in the cold, he then violently attacked and choked her and later let the air out of her tires, so she could not leave.

The accused was not apprehended at the time and a warrant was issued for his arrest.

During further investigation police learned of a previous unreported incident in 2015. Once again the accused had been allegedly drinking and when the victim tried to leave he choked her and raised a knife above her heart while threatening to stab her.

On December 27, 2017 the accused was located and arrested. The accused was transported to police headquarters where he was held to attend a bail hearing the following day.

The accused was charged with assault cause bodily harm, forcible confinement, theft, mischief, willfully cause suffering to an animal, assault, assault with a weapon, and uttering threats to cause death.
