Dispute between neighbours leads to criminal harassment charge

On March 29th, 2026, members of the Huntsville OPP responded to a neighbour dispute. 

Police say they spoke with both parties involved, who have been engaged in ongoing disputes in recent months. The suspect was cautioned to allow the neighbour, who was in the process of moving, to do so without interfering.

However, later that same day, police were called again to a report that the suspect was following the victim and continuing the harassment. Police determined, based on the evidence they gathered, that the offence of criminal harassment had been committed.

As a result of the investigation, David PEARSON, 51 years old of Huntsville, Ontario, is charged with:

  • Criminal Harassment – repeatedly follow, repeatedly communicate with, watch and beset, threatening conduct.

The accused is to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice on April 21, 2026, at the Ontario Court of Justice in Bracebridge, Ontario.

The Huntsville OPP requests that anyone can report a crime by contacting the Huntsville OPP at 705-789-5551 or 1-888-310-1122, or to remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at www.ontariocrimestoppers.ca, where you may be eligible to receive a cash reward of up to $2000.
