It was anything but business as usual at Walmart Wednesday evening.
Orillia OPP were called to deal with a "very aggressive" man who was "found to be committing numerous" offences at the west-Orillia department store.
"While officers were arresting this individual, he made attempts to flee and further assaulted numerous officers," states an OPP news release.
Following an investigation, Kierin Gent, 31, of Niagara Region, has been charged with mischief under $5,000, causing a disturbance, failure to comply with a release order, obstruct a peace officer, two counts of resisting a peace officer and assault of a peace officer.
The accused has been held in custody pending a bail hearing.
None of the allegations have been tested in court.
