Alleged assault took place in a vehicle

A Kingston man was apprehended last week after a brief police pursuit across multiple jurisdictions.

On Monday, July 22, 2024, around 8 p.m., the Lennox and Addington (L&A) OPP responded to a 911 call about domestic violence. The incident occurred on Highway 401, where the suspect and victim were traveling eastbound.

The search for their vehicle led to a significant police presence at an apartment complex on Development Drive in Kingston's west end, around 9 p.m. Kingston Police, along with the Frontenac and L&A OPP detachments, collaborated to find the suspect's vehicle. The 44-year-old Kingston man was arrested at the scene.

He faces several charges, including three counts of spousal assault and uttering threats.
