Two men charged after disturbance in downtown Owen Sound

A disturbance call in Owen Sound led to two people facing weapons charges.

Owen Sound Police started getting calls around 8:30 last night about a disturbance involving about six people.

When officers arrived, witnesses told them a knife and what appeared to be a handgun were pulled during the altercation.

Police were able to find two suspects who matched witnesses’ descriptions and they were taken into custody without incident. Police say they found a folding knife and a pellet gun on the pair.

Police later learned a third person was involved and is accused of being the one to actually brandish the pellet gun.

One 18-year-old is charged with assault with a weapon, uttering threats, and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
