Woman charged with assault

On Sunday, following a report of an assault that took place inside a North Bay residential unit on Saturday, North Bay Police arrested and charged a 30-year-old North Bay woman with one count of assault.

It is alleged that the accused, who is due to vacate her rental at the end of the month, punched her landlord while he was showing her unit to potential renters shortly after 2 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 10, 2016. The landlord, who had provided the accused with the required 24-hour notice before showing the unit, suffered minor injuries as a result this incident.
 
The accused was released from custody with a court date scheduled for Jan. 17, 2017.

Man accused of car theft

At about 7 a.m. on Sunday, Dec. 11, 2016, a North Bay resident started her car to warm it up and then went back inside her home, leaving the vehicle unattended and unlocked. When she returned about five minutes later, her car was gone. She immediately called police.

A North Bay Police Service patrol officer located the vehicle approximately 10 minutes later, parked at Sixth Avenue and Cassells Street, with the engine running and a man asleep behind the wheel.

Following an investigation, police arrested and charged:

Kenneth William Golding, age 29, of Redbridge with:
One count of theft of motor vehicle;
One count of care or control of vehicle while impaired by alcohol; and
One count of breach of Officer in Charge undertaking.

The accused was later released from custody with a court date scheduled for Dec. 20, 2016.

Public reminder:
With the cold winter months, many drivers will often start their vehicles and leave them to warm up before they drive them. The North Bay Police Service reminds motorists to always lock their vehicles when left unattended, especially when they are left running.
