South Simcoe Police cruiser
Three youths have been charged following an assault with a weapon at an apartment building in Innisfil earlier this month.
South Simcoe Police say the charges come after an investigation into an incident reported around 7:20 p.m. on Monday, March 9th, at an apartment building in a retail plaza on Innisfil Beach Road. Investigators say three male youths assaulted an adult victim after tampering with cameras inside a nearby apartment building.
One of the suspects allegedly brandished a gold expandable baton and attempted to strike the victim, while the other two punched the victim while he was on the ground. The victim suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries after being struck multiple times in the face and head, before the suspects fled westbound on Westminster Street.
All three have since been released with conditions and are scheduled to appear in court at a later date.
