The Fredericton Police Force issued a news release Wednesday about his arrest earlier in the week. It said Peterson was identified as a suspect in an alleged instance of shoplifting at a downtown business Jan. 11 during which a store employee was assaulted and injured.

Court records shed some additional light on those allegations.
