Windsor man faces charges of robbery and uttering threats

A 25-year-old Windsor man faces charges after a carjacking incident in London.

Early Monday morning, a man heard a car alarm in his residential neighbourhood.

He went outside and approached a man near a shed who threatened to stab him before fleeing.

About two hours later, a woman in her driveway was approached by a strange man who grabbed her wrist and demanded her car keys.

She saw a knife in his hand and screamed.  The man fled.

The London police K-9 unit was called and located the suspect.

Jason Long was arrested and charged with armed robbery and uttering threats of death or bodily harm.

He was also wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for breach of parole.
