A 25-year-old Trenton man has been charged with a weapons offense and assault after he allegedly pulled out a knife and refused to obey police commands, according to the East Windsor Police Department.
A police officer responded to the Colonade Motel on Route 130 to investigate a disturbance April 3, police said. When he arrived, he noticed a man involved in the incident walking past the Wendy’s fast food restaurant.
When the man saw the police officer, he allegedly displayed a knife, police said. Additional police officers responded and told the man to drop the knife.
