Lindsay burglary suspects cut victim’s hair extensions with knife: police – Peterborough | The Canadian News

Two people have been charged following a violent home invasion in Lindsay, Ontario, last week.

According to the Kawartha Lakes City Police Service, around 8 a.m. on December 17, officers responded to a report of unwanted persons in an apartment.

Police say two people forcibly entered the residence and then threatened the victim with a knife pointed at his throat and face. The suspects then cut hair extensions from the victim’s head, police say.

“The victim was able to escape and contact the police and only minor injuries were reported,” police said Tuesday.

Police say the victim and the suspects know each other.

The investigation led to the arrest of two people.

Matthew Wayne Taylor, 38, and Tiffany Frocking, 33, both of Lindsay, were each charged with breaking into and entering and assaulting with a weapon. Taylor was also charged with making threats and possessing a weapon.

Taylor was taken into custody for a bond hearing in Lindsay later Friday; Frocking was released and is scheduled to appear in court on January 27, 2022.
