The first episode of assault occurred on the night of July 13, according to a report by Sault News.
Investigators explained that an “intoxicated tenant slapped another tenant multiple times on the back and the mouth area.”
This was only the beginning of the neighbor’s outburst, per police reports.
“The next day, the accused knocked on the victim’s apartment door and threatened to physically harm the victim again.”
The perpetrator was taken into custody on July 15.
However, she was released in the evening on the same day.
Law enforcement noted that the perpetrator was released with conditions not to have any communication with the victim.
Unfortunately, that did not stop the tenant from continuing to threaten the neighbor.
Just ten minutes after the accused was freed, she acted again.
“The accused observed the victim on their apartment balcony and began yelling and swearing at the victim,” police explained.
The 59-year-old woman now faces multiple charges.
The first episode resulted in a charge of assault and uttering death threats.
The second occurrence resulted in failure to comply with law enforcement and public intoxication.
After the second arrest, the suspect was taken back into custody.
Police said she was “lodged overnight until sober.”
She will appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Elliot Lake on Sept. 7.
