RCMP officer assaulted in Dauphin

A 40-year-old Skownan First Nation man was arrested this past Saturday in Dauphin after an RCMP officer was assaulted.

Dauphin Municipal RCMP officers had responded to a local bar to remove an intoxicated man who was taken to the Dauphin detachment to be lodged in a cell. The man was belligerent and uncooperative and grabbed one of the officers.

There was a brief struggle but no one was injured.

The man was released on a promise to appear and will appear in court in Dauphin on April 30.

Comments are not accepted on this story because they might prejudice a case before the courts.
