Charges have been laid following a neighbour dispute in Chatham.

Police were called to a Wedgewood Avenue home shortly before 10 Wednesday morning, and say a woman allegedly threatened to harm her neighbour.

As the accused was being taken into custody, authorities claim she threw a beverage at one of the arresting officers and tried to run off.

The suspect was brought back under control and taken to police headquarters.

The 36-year-old has been charged with uttering threats and assaulting a peace officer. She was held in custody for a bail hearing.
