Chatham-Kent Police Service officials allege: A 35-year-old Chatham man has been arrested following an investigation into a disturbance at a residence earlier this month.
Chatham-Kent police say officers were called to a home on Forest Street late on Feb. 1, 2026, after reports of a disturbance.

As a result of the investigation, police laid two counts of assault causing bodily harm and issued a warrant for the man’s arrest.
On Feb. 2, 2026, at approximately 10:48 p.m., officers located the accused on Curran Crescent in Chatham and arrested him on the outstanding warrant. He was transported to police headquarters and later released with a court date scheduled for March 16, 2026.
