A man is facing a weapons charge following an altercation downtown Cobourg, Ont., late last week.

According to the Cobourg Police Service, around 6:45 a.m. on Jan. 12, officers responded to a report of a disturbance in the area of College Street and King Street East.

Officers determined a man had waved a knife around in a “threatening manner” during an altercation.
