A man accused of assaulting a security guard and making threatening remarks to customers at a Chestermere store appeared in provincial court in Drumheller on Friday, March 18.
The court heard how on November 7, 2021, Trevor Valley entered the Shoppers Drug Mart in Chestermere and began arguing with a security guard.
At the time, Mr. Valley was intoxicated and began making aggressive gestures towards the security guard before knocking the face mask off the security guard’s face.
He also made threatening statements to a customer, stating he would “spill [the customer’s] guts.”
Mr. Valley faced three criminal charges as a result of this incident for threats, assault, and causing a disturbance.
The Crown noted it was willing to accept a common-law peace bond in resolution as Mr. Valley has made efforts to make changes, including maintaining his sobriety.
It was noted in the peace bond Mr. Valley is not to have contact with the victims involved, and not to go to the store in question.
