The man wanted across the province for the assault of a convenience store worker is back in jail.
Vancouver police say they found Fario Mabanza downtown on Saturday night, while responding to reports of suspicious people trespassing in a Richards Street parkade.
Mabanza, 27, was the subject of a provincewide warrant last week after he was accused of throwing hot soup in the face of a 70-year-old 7-Eleven worker two weeks ago.
The incident happened after police say she confronted the suspect for allegedly shoplifting.
According to police, the man was carrying a cup of instant noodles and is accused of throwing it in the woman’s face and on her clothes.
Mabanza is facing charges of theft, assault with a weapon and assault causing bodily harm.
