Defecating & Urinating On Cell Floor & Walls Leads To More Charges – Name Released

On September 18, 2025, at approximately 1pm police attended Lambton College for a male causing a disturbance at the Wellington Street entrance, yelling at security officers who had refused him entry. He then left the scene prior to police arrival.  He was identified as Daniel WELLINGTON.

Police attended and spoke with staff members.  In order to protect students and staff, WELLINGTON had been previously banned from the property after threatening and harassing staff members. Officers reviewed multiple emails, voice messages all containing vile language and multiple threats to damage property and commit violent acts against specific people.  These threats were detailed and specifically directed at named individuals, causing them to fear for their safety.

At the time these offences were committed, WELLINGTON was bound by a probation order requiring him to keep the peace and be of good behaviour, with additional conditions. 

At 2:20pm, Police located WELLINGTON at an Errol Road East address. He was placed under arrest and immediately began yelling obscenities at police as he was secured in a cruiser. 

Daniel WELLINGTON (27 years) of Petrolia Line in Corunna, was held for bail on the following charges.

  • Uttering Threats to Cause Death
  • Criminal Harassment
  • Failing to Comply with Probation

While in the custody of Sarnia Police, WELLINGTON was lodged in a cell within the SPS detention facility.  All cells are equipped with bathroom amenities (toilet/sink).  During this time, WELLINGTON continued his tirade within the cell block.  He expressed his displeasure by urinating and defecating on the cell floor and walls.  This created a biohazard requiring decontamination services (at a cost estimated to be several hundred dollars) and preventing the cell from being used until sanitized.  As a result, additional charges were added:

  • Mischief
  • Breach Probation

Following his bail hearing, the court remanded him into custody.
