A man from the Universal Ostrich Farm (UOF) protest camp facing assault and mischief charges needs a lawyer.
Timothy Regan’s matter was heard at the Vernon Courthouse Thursday, Jan. 8, but adjourned to Jan. 22 to allow further time for him to retain counsel. He is not in custody.
Regan, 60 of Ontario, is charged with assault, assault with a weapon, and mischief.
He was arrested the morning of Sept. 22, 2025 after RCMP were alerted to an alleged altercation at a property neighbouring the Edgewood ostrich farm.
The altercation resulted in a 73-year-old female victim needing medical assistance on scene.
“The suspect who was associated to the protest camp on the UOF, was identified and arrested without incident,” said Staff Sgt. Kris Clark in a Dec. 11 media release.
