A man with a knife who was reportedly seen yelling at passers-by was arrested in the Village Stroll earlier this month.

A man who was observed in the village with a knife yelling at bystanders earlier this month was arrested and eventually released on court documents, the RCMP said in a release.

At 10:45 a.m. on July 17, police said the male was observed holding a folding knife with a four-inch blade in the 4200 block of the Village Stroll. The man was reportedly “yelling at people passing by,” the release went on.

The suspect was arrested for possession of a weapon for dangerous purpose without incident and was held at the detachment before being release with a future court date. Police also confiscated the knife.
