Summerside Police Services arrested a man Friday night after a woman ran into a Granville Street business and said her ex-boyfriend had just pulled a knife on her.
Police were called at about 7:30 p.m.
The suspect, a 21-year-old Summerside man, ran away before police arrived, but he was found a short time later, hiding behind a nearby business.
A knife was recovered near where he was hiding.
Police already had an outstanding warrant for the man’s arrest.
He was remanded into custody and will appear in court at a later date. He is facing weapons and assault related charges.
The victim did not sustain any serious injuries as a result of the incident.
