A 23-year-old Peterborough man is facing several new charges after an incident on Sunday related to previous thefts and probation violations.
Police say an officer on patrol saw the man crossing Charlotte and Aylmer streets against traffic around 9:45 a.m. When the officer attempted to speak with him, the man fled on foot. He was caught shortly afterward and taken into custody. During the arrest, the suspect verbally threatened, spat at, and kicked officers.
He now faces multiple charges, including:
-
Uttering threats causing death or bodily harm (2 counts)
-
Assaulting a peace officer (2 counts)
-
Failing to comply with probation (16 counts)
-
Failing to comply with an undertaking (4 counts)
-
Theft under $5,000 (3 counts)
-
Pedestrian disobeying a red light (Highway Traffic Act)
The man is currently bound by four probation orders requiring him to keep the peace and be of good behaviour.
