RCMP Report: Young man arrested, bites police officer
Battlefords RCMP arrested a 20-year-old man on multiple charges Tuesday in an odd case of assault.
Members were called to the incident in progress on the 1900 block of 104th Street in North Battleford at 9:45 p.m., with the initial report indicating a man was fighting with a shirtless teen. The teen was located and spoken to, along with several witnesses, which presented a different story.
Sgt. Neil Tremblay said the officers used this information to initiate the arrest of, Dawson Gamble.
“What had happened was an older man had come across a physical confrontation between the accused and a teenager and separated them,” he said. “The young suspect had injuries consistent with assault, so there was a thought that he was a teen victim.”
