The St. Thomas Police Service says a Special Constable was assaulted on Monday while transporting a prisoner from the courthouse to a correctional facility.
Police report that a 34-year-old St. Thomas resident, already in custody on serious criminal charges, spat in the face of the officer during the transfer.
As a result, a warrant was requested and the accused now faces additional charges of assault and three counts of failing to comply with a probation order.
