(Havelock Belmont Methuen Township, ON) – On Saturday June 14, at approximately 11:45 p.m., members of the Peterborough County OPP were called to investigate a report of a domestic incident at a seasonal residence on Fire Route 18C.
A 23 year old female and a 25 year old male were with several friends at a weekend cottage north east of Havelock. At this time the two became involved in an argument that became physical. This resulted in the female being assaulted.
When witnesses attempted to intervene the male fled the area and attempted to steal a neighbours vehicle this resulted in the male becoming involved in a confrontation with the 46 year old owner of the motor-vehicle.

The male has been held for a Bail Hearing scheduled for Monday June 16, in Peterborough Provincial Courts.
