On March 6, 2026, the Cornwall Police Service arrested a 19-year-old man from Cornwall, Ontario, following an investigation into several domestic incidents. The man has been charged with assault, uttering threats, and harassment involving his ex-girlfriend.
According to police reports, the alleged abuse took place over several months. Officers say the man assaulted his ex-girlfriend between September 1 and October 31, 2025, and later threatened to harm her on January 1, 2026.
The investigation also found that the man repeatedly contacted the woman and went to locations where she was known to be between February 2 and March 1, 2026. Police say these actions caused her to fear for her safety.
The man was taken into custody and has since been released. He is expected to appear in court on March 26, 2026. Residents who need support in similar situations can reach out to the Victim Services unit for help.
