The accused was charged with multiple counts of mischief and assault with a weapon after rocks were thrown at several motor vehicles and a home in a residential neighbourhood.
The primary issue at trial was the identity of the culprit.
The court considered eyewitness testimony, in-dock identification, and circumstantial evidence including the tight temporal and geographical proximity of the accused's arrest to the crimes.
The court found that the elements of the offences were proven and that the accused was the sole person responsible, entering findings of guilt on three counts of assault with a weapon and twelve counts of mischief.
