Windsor police responded to the incident shortly after 6 p.m. in the 1600 block of College Avenue.

Article content

The victim was a 58-year-old man. Officers learned that he became involved in a verbal dispute with a teen who had reportedly been blocking the street with a bicycle.

The teen cyclist left the scene, then returned a short time later and sprayed the man in the face with a painful chemical.

The man required medical attention as a result. He was taken to a hospital for treatment.

Windsor police continued to investigate. Around 8:45 p.m, officers located and arrested a male youth in the 1300 block of College Avenue.

A canister of bear spray was found in one of the suspect’s pockets.

The name of the accused cannot be published due to the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Windsor police said the suspect is 15 years old, and he is being charged with assault with a weapon and administering a noxious substance.

Animal deterrent sprays are typically based on capsaicin — the active component in chili peppers that causes a sensation of burning in any tissue.

Commercially available bear sprays usually have a concentration of one per cent capsaicin, which is enough to cause severe eye irritation and respiratory distress, but not permanent damage.

Manitoba Justice Minister Kelvin Goertzen speaks during a Federal-Provincial-Territorial (FPT) Ministers meeting on bail reform in Ottawa on Friday March 10, 2023. The Manitoba government is now requiring vendors who sell bear repellent to obtain photo identification from customers in an effort to curb a rash of recent attacks involving the deterrent.

In order to be legal in Canada, a canister of bear spray must clearly show it is for use against animals, and cannot be more than 500 millilitres in size.

Furthermore, it is illegal to carry bear spray in circumstances where a bear is unlikely to be encountered, such as an urban environment. In such a setting, the Criminal Code of Canada would treat bear spray as a concealed or restricted weapon.

Cities across Canada have been seeing a rise of occurrences of bear spray being used as a weapon.

Earlier this year, police services in both Vancouver and Edmonton asked their respective city councils to introduce new bylaws to restrict sale of bear spray beyond federal regulation.

In the same vein, Manitoba introduced new provincial legislation in April making photo identification a requirement to purchase bear spray.

Anyone with more information about Saturday’s incident is encouraged to contact the Major Crimes Unit at 519-255-6700 ext. 4830.

Anonymous tips can be made via Crime Stoppers at 519-258-8477 or www.catchcrooks.com.
