Two employees at a Cambridge grocery store were injured after a man stole from the shop multiple times on Friday.
Regional police say a suspect is now in custody following an incident at the business. Officers responded to Dundas Street North and Main Street around 11:05 a. m. During their investigation, they found out that the man took items from the store and then attacked an employee who tried to stop him.
The man left but came back shortly after. This time, he assaulted another worker right at the entrance before leaving again.
Police tracked down the suspect and arrested him, but he resisted and fought with officers during the arrest, according to a press release. The officers said he also assaulted them.
The 39-year-old Cambridge resident now faces several charges including:
- Robbery
- Assault with a weapon
- Assault peace officer (two counts)
- Assault with intent to resist arrest
- Mischief under $5,000
He’s being held until his bail hearing takes place.
