Charges have been laid after two people told Waterloo Regional Police they were sprayed with a noxious substance in Kitchener.

Officers were called to the Sheldon Avenue North and King Street East area on Saturday.

When they arrived, officers were told an 18-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man were approached by a man that they knew. A fight began and the victims were sprayed with a noxious substance.

A 27-year-old Kitchener man is facing multiple charges including two counts of assault with a weapon and two counts of administering a noxious substance.
