Arrests made after man assaulted, robbed of coins

Four Chatham-Kent residents are facing charges after they allegedly assaulted a Wallaceburg man and took off with a box of collector coins.

Chatham-Kent police said officers were called to the home at around 5 a.m. Monday, adding that the 34-year-old Wallaceburg man was taken to the Sydenham District Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

The victim was able to identify two of the suspects, which led police to a residence in Dresden where they arrested four men in connection with the case.

Three of the men -- aged 27, 33, and 36 -- are from Dresden, while the other suspect -- a 36-year-old man -- is from Howard Township.

All four of the accused have been charged with robbery and they were all taken into custody pending a bail hearing.
