A 38-year-old man of no fixed address is up on charges after Barrie Police responded shortly before 1 p.m. on Sunday about a man armed with a knife and waving it in a dangerous manner at a Mulcaster Street address.

The man has been charged with the following:

The man was held for a bail hearing that was scheduled to take place on Monday.
