This incident followed a golf-club assault at the Bay Street Tim Hortons
Two days after a city police officer arrested him in March for attacking a man with a golf club Tyler Kennedy posted the cop's photograph on his Facebook page.
He also was convicted of assault with a weapon for his actions two days earlier when he struck a man with an iron sand wedge at a downtown coffee shop, as well as two counts of breaching a probation order. "He was swinging the golf club around multiple times," and struck the victim on his left hand and right wrist, prosecutor Chris Thompson said.
Your conduct towards the officer was more than a reaction, you sought out a photo of him, and invited people to harm him, the judge told Kennedy.When he imposed the sentence, Condon noted the accused's lengthy criminal record — "full of violence" with a number of convictions for assault, including one for assault with a weapon in 2022.
