Three people are facing charges after an incident at business in the 700 Block of Albert Street. Officers were dispatched to a report of a bear spray incident at the business shortly before 10:30 a.m. Sunday, October 17, 2021. When they arrived they observed several people who appeared to be suffering from the effects of the bear spray – however, none required medical attention. They were told the attack had taken place on the second floor.
Investigation led officers to a female victim who was in distress in a second-floor room. She alleged that three people, two females and one male, confined her to a chair, threatened her with a firearm and a bladed weapon and then bear-sprayed her before leaving the business. She was able to break free from the restraints. Officers located and arrested the three suspects a short time later.
