A man is facing assault charges for allegedly injuring an intruder at his home in Lindsay, Ont., according to local police.

The Kawartha Lakes Police Service says it responded to a call on Kent Street at about 3:20 a.m. on Monday.

According to police, the resident had woken up to find an intruder inside his apartment. The two had an "altercation" and the intruder suffered life-threatening injuries, police say, and was later airlifted to a Toronto hospital.

The alleged intruder, 41, is also facing charges, including breaking and entering and possession of a weapon for dangerous purposes. Police say the man was also already wanted for unrelated offences.



So in short.

Man breaks into another man’s apartment with weapon. Guy living in apartment wakes up to the break in and beats the shite out of the intruder. Guy living in apartment gets charged with assault for his troubles.

A lot of places don't have self-defense laws like we do.

You essentially don’t have a right to self defense in Canada. Same in the UK

Yeah, some of those videos of people walking into strangers houses in UK are mine numbing and they don’t have complete immunity to do something about it

Most home robberies in the UK happen when people are at home. It’s the exact opposite here. There’s a reason why.

Unfathomable. It should be a basic human right.

Countries like UK and Canada have laws that it’s basically “attempt to escape” before you’re able to defend yourself. It’s bullshite.

To be fair, Canada isn't used to its citizens defending themselves.

I was watching a JRE/ Colin Noir video earlier and they played the clip of Tredeau saying you don't have a right of an armed defense of yourself. Or something to that affect. Wild.

I bet me and a few friends could invade Canada and take over the entire country in about a week... bunch of pussies. They've been hiding behind daddy Merica so long they forgot how to grow balls.

It always comes back to that retarded argument of "you would shoot someone for your TV?" No assholes, I can't read minds, I would shoot someone because they already completely disregarded standard human behavior and I have no idea what else they will do.

Canada is full of stupid laws. My family happens to be from Lindsay. I had a great uncle who landed in prison for getting in a motor vehicle accident with liquor in his trunk. He was not drunk and didn’t have access to the liquor but the bottle broke so he went to prison for a decade.
