Three individuals are facing charges following separate intimate partner violence investigations in Norfolk County, according to police.
The first incident occurred February 9th shortly after 7 p.m., when officers from the Ontario Provincial Police responded to a reported dispute at a residence.
Investigators determined that two individuals had been involved in a physical altercation inside the home, during which both parties assaulted one another.
Minor injuries were reported, and both individuals were taken into custody without incident.
A 65-year-old Norfolk County resident has been charged with assault – spousal. A 51-year-old resident has been charged with assault with a weapon – spousal, as well as failing to comply with a probation order.
Both are scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Simcoe.
In a separate investigation on February 12th, police responded to another domestic dispute.
Officers determined that multiple incidents had occurred between December 2025 and February 2026, involving assault, property damage, and alleged stalking behaviour.
As a result, a 35-year-old Norfolk County resident was charged with multiple offences, including two counts of assault – spousal, assault with a weapon – spousal, criminal harassment, and mischief.
That accused remains in custody and is scheduled for a bail hearing.
Police say intimate partner violence can affect anyone and encourage victims or those concerned about someone they know to seek help through local support services or by contacting police.
