A 35 year old man has been arrested after a weapons incident in the city Tuesday night.

Police were called to Lorne and 12th avenue for a report of an intoxicated man who was refusing to leave a business.

While en route, officers were warned the man may have a bladed weapon.

When police arrived they saw a man with what appeared to a machete. He was ordered to drop it, and he did.

Then he ran.

He was caught a short distance away, and arrested after what police call “a brief struggle”
