Man charged with assaulting another man with large stick, damaging vehicle in Fort Chipewyan

A man is in jail in Fort Chipewyan after being charged with assaulting another man with a large stick on the weekend. RCMP in Fort Chipewyan said in a media release they responded to a call at 6 a.m. Saturday of an assault with a weapon at a home on Delta Drive in the northern Alberta community. They said a 36-year-old Fort Chipewyan man had gone to the home, used a large stick to damage a parked vehicle – smashing the windshield, mirror and body of it, police told CTV News Edmonton – then got into a fight with a 62-year-old man outside the house, hitting him with the stick and causing minor injuries to the latter's hands and shoulder. The 36-year-old left before officers arrived. Police found and arrested him shortly after. The man has been charged with assault with a weapon and mischief over $5,000, was held by police for a judicial hearing and is in custody awaiting his next court date on Tuesday. Fort Chipewyan is 227 kilometres north of Fort McMurray and 598 kilometres northeast of Edmonton.
