Regina police say they had to deploy a Taser against a 35-year-old man who was threatening violence with a weapon.

Police say the incident began following a report that a man involved in a domestic dispute had damaged property and uttered threats to harm others on his way out of a residence yesterday afternoon.

Officers located the man hiding inside a nearby building.

Thirty-five year old Chris Moran faces several charges, including uttering threats and mischief under $5,000.
