Suspect Cuts Himself With His Own Weapon

Charges have been laid after a spat between two men in Chatham.

On Friday afternoon, authorities say a 51-year-old man pulled a knife and threw a cup of hot coffee at another man at the Spirit and Life Centre in Chatham. The suspect apparently cut himself when he went to put the knife back in his pocket.

Officers tracked down the accused a short distance away and took him to hospital for medical attention.

The man is now facing charges of two counts of assault with a weapon and was released with a date in court in January.
