A Chatham man is facing charges for allegedly harassing a woman several times over the last two years.

The Chatham-Kent Police Service said officers were called to St. Clair Street in Chatham at around 5:45 p.m. on Wednesday for a domestic disturbance.

Following an investigation, authorities learned that a series of incidents dating back to 2021 had occurred between a man and a woman.
