When they arrived, they found Fletcher naked and attempting to break into cars in the parking lot. Fletcher was under the influence of drugs, court heard, and damaged the windshield of one of the cars before being arrested.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Court heard that Fletcher had just finished a previous jail stint one day before the incident.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On August 31, 2023, the Huntsville OPP received multiple calls about a disturbance on Main Street. Callers reported a man smashing things in the middle of the street, blocking traffic, jumping up and down on cars, and attempting to gain access to them. The man, later identified as Fletcher, then entered a downtown restaurant and began smashing things, causing the patrons to run out of the establishment.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The police were then forced to shut down a section of Main Street. When officers attempt to apprehend Fletcher, he punches one in the face and broke another\u2019s finger before being subdued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, on October 23, 2023, at roughly 6 p.m., police again received multiple calls for service after a naked man was attempting to get into vehicles. Police again found Fletcher under the influence, and he was arrested and kept in custody up until his court appearance this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Court heard Fletcher suffers from depression and self-medicates with drugs and alcohol, which leads to his criminal behaviour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was sentenced to time served and two years of probation.<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Huntsville man who injured multiple police officers, chased restaurant patrons, and shut down Main Street had to answer for himself in Bracebridge court on Wednesday.
