A 37-year-old man is facing charges after police allegedly found him carrying some brass knuckles.
Police said they found the weapon while they were searching him after responding to a shoplifting complaint in Chatham on Thursday.
Officers said the discovery of the brass knuckles was an even bigger problem because the man was previously issued a lifetime weapons ban.
As a result of the investigation, the accused was charged with theft, possession of stolen property, and breaching his probation. He was taken into custody pending a bail hearing.
