A 36-year-old Rossland man has been arrested following a fourth disturbance at a Trail area business.
Police allege the suspect tried to hit one of the arresting officers after the incident on Rossland Ave.
It happened just before 11:30 a.m. Fri May 2.
RCMP say they found the man in the parking lot outside the business and suspect he had been drinking.
He was released from jail once sober.
Additional charges are pending against the same man after three similar occurrences last week.
RCMP say staff were yelled at and police were threatened, resulting in three stints in jail.
Wicentowich maintains officers often show patience in these cases before referring them to crown prosecutors.
“Criminal charges are often the last resort in order to manage someone’s behavior,” he said.
