A Salmon Arm man who missed his scheduled court date now has an assault charge added to his record.
On March 28, members of the Salmon Arm RCMP were sent to a local residence to arrest a man with outstanding warrants for failing to attend court.
Upon arrival, the man allegedly confronted the officers with a sword.
“The suspect was disarmed by officers, taken into custody and transported to cells,” said Southeast District Cpl. James Grandy.
