An area man remains in custody following an incident in Fort Frances on the weekend.

OPP were called to a downtown establishment Sunday where they learned an intoxicated man involved in a dispute became confrontational when asked to leave.

Police later located the man and placed him under arrest, at which time he became confrontational with police.

The 36-year-old man from Seine River now faces charges of assaulting police and trespassing.
