WEYBURN – A male youth is facing an assault charge following an incident where a liquid from a “Big Gulp” cup was thrown onto a younger female youth, according to Weyburn Police Service (WPS).
The complaint was received on Sept. 19, prompting an investigation that led to the charge. The youth is scheduled to appear in court at a later date. The police didn't specify what the liquid was.
“While this may seem like a minor offence, such actions can be very upsetting for victims and may have criminal consequences,” said WPS in a media release. “This serves as an important reminder for parents to discuss with their children how what may seem harmless or funny to some can in fact be very upsetting to others.”
