“Officers seized two weapons from the man during a search subsequent to his arrest, which is a violation of his court-imposed conditions to not have any in his possession.”

Brandon Allen Oppenheimer, 37, of Vernon has been charged with several Criminal Code offences, including assault, assault with a weapon, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, and six counts of failing to comply with a probation order.

Police say he remains in custody and was expected to appear in court on Friday.
