A man is facing multiple charges following an alleged assault on board a BC Ferries sailing to Vancouver Island.
According to Sidney/North Saanich RCMP, the incident happened early on the morning of June 28, when a male passenger reportedly began running through the vehicle deck and assaulting crew members.
Several passengers stepped in to restrain the individual until the ferry arrived safely at the Swartz Bay terminal, where police took the man into custody without incident.
He has since been released on conditions and is scheduled to appear in court on September 22. The suspect faces two counts of assault and one count of mischief.
The investigation remains ongoing.
