A Delta man is facing 11 charges after a four-month police investigation in which a victim and a third party came forward about allegations regarding assaults and threats.
Wyatt James Culbertson, 38, faces five counts of assault with a weapon, two counts of utter threats to cause death or bodily harm and two counts of assault regarding events that took place March 17 and March 30. He also faces a charge of dangerous operation of a vehicle, and a charge from May 2019 of breaching his conditions.
Culbertson has been released under a number of conditions and is set to next appear in Surrey provincial court on June 20.
The conditions include:
· Residing at a specified residence, and being within this residence at all times except with written permission of his bail supervisor
· No contact with his victims
· Not to possess or consume alcohol, drugs or other intoxicating substances
· Not to possess weapons
· Not to be in the company of any sex trade worker.
The investigation is being led by the DPD Major Crimes section. The allegations concern incidents that occurred in Ladner in March, and involve two separate victims. The victims were briefly known to the suspect.
“We’d like to thank the victims in these incidents for coming forward and reporting these events to police,” says Insp. Guy Leeson in a news release.
