Police arrest wanted man

A 21 year old Hamilton man who managed to escape from police three weeks ago has been arrested. 

Philip Albert was one of three people arrested on October 20th after Hamilton’s guns and gangs unit stormed a house on Cannon Street East. 

Inside police found $4,000 worth of marijuana, as well as $8,000 in cash, a loaded gun and ammunition.

After he was handcuffed, Albert bolted from police wearing only his boxer shorts.    

He was wanted on numerous drug and firearms charges.

Albert has a bail hearing scheduled for Tuesday morning.
