Charges have been laid against a Chatham man, accused of wreaking havoc at the fire station.

According to Chatham-Kent Police, the man was throwing chunks of ice at Station #1 at the Civic Centre, damaging the roof lights and front bumper of one of the trucks.

Officers located the man on Sandys Street a short time later.

The 40-year-old is now facing mischief charges and will be in court to explain his actions next month.
