A scuffle with police has landed a Chatham man with charges.
Officers responded to a report of a suspicious man behind a dumpster on King Street West in Chatham just after 7:30 Thursday morning.
The man was arrested under suspicion of having a controlled substance, but while being taken into custody, authorities say the accused tried to run and punched an officer.
The 26-year-old was eventually brought under control and is now facing charges of assaulting a police officer.
He was released with conditions and a date in court on August 24th.
