A 36-year-old Peterborough man wanted on a warrant is facing several more charges after an incident Sunday morning.
At approximately 6:30am on January 12, 2024, officers were called to a residence in the Towerhill Road and Hilliard Street area about a disturbance. Upon arrival, officers learned that there was a dispute between a couple and that the male had thrown objects at the female, spat on her, lit her hair on fire and poured water on her. Officers learned that the man was in the basement of the residence and began calling out to him. After about 20 minutes the man came out and was taken into custody. Officers learned that there was a warrant for the suspects arrest for five charges including assault cause bodily harm and forcible confinement.

The accused is currently bound by a probation order to not communicate with the female involved.
