A veteran OPP member is accused of uttering threats at a business in Temiskaming Shores.
Around 11 a.m. on May 27, Temiskaming OPP was called to a Highway 11 business for a customer making threats.
Claude Gagne, a 64-year-old resident of Thornloe, was charged with three counts of uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm.
"The accused has been a member of the Ontario Provincial Police for 34 years. While assigned the Temiskaming Detachment, the member remains off work on an unrelated leave of absence," said OPP in a news release.
The accused was released from custody and is slated to appear in court on June 20 in Temiskaming Shores.
