Charges have been laid following an assault in Thamesville. The Chatham-Kent Police Service said officers responded to a complaint at an address on Base Line shortly before 4 p.m. on Monday. Officers arrived and learned that an argument between two people escalated when a man grabbed a woman by the arms, causing bruising. As a result, a 51-year-old Thamesville man was arrested and charged with one count of assault. He was later released from custody with conditions and an October court date.
