Tyler Lee Weber, 40, was released from custody after being charged with assault and mischief and is scheduled to appear in Cochrane provincial court on March 22.
According to RCMP officials, the delay in naming Weber as the accused was due to the fact his charges had yet to be sworn before the courts.
