A 25-year old man of no fixed address is facing charges after a domestic complaint in Fort Erie.

She was not in the house, was able to call police, and was not hurt.

Police arrested the suspect at 10:30 that night, after getting a warrant.

He is facing an assault charge, mischief under $5,000, 2 counts of uttering threats, 2 counts of failing to comply with probation, and possession of a weapon contrary to a probation order.  

The accused was held in custody pending a video bail hearing in St. Catharines.
