On Wednesday just before 10 a.m., police said the suspect was spotted by an off-duty officer near Portage Avenue and Sharp Boulevard. On-duty officers were called and the suspect was arrested near Portage Avenue and Strathmillan Road without incident. The suspect has been charged with aggravated assault, robbery and failure to comply with a probation order. He has been detained in custody, and the charges have not been proven in court.
