A man involved in an altercation at a Ponoka restaurant in 2009 finally saw sentencing in provincial court on Friday, Oct. 24.
Judge J. Holmes sentenced Nathaniel Miller, 39, to a $300 fine following his involvement in a disturbance that took place five years ago.
On Feb. 6, 2009 Ponoka RCMP responded to a complaint of a fight in a restaurant; by the time police arrived, those involved had left.
Later that same day, another call came in that one of the individuals involved in the fight had returned to the restaurant.
Miller was arrested and released on a promise to appear for the March 27, 2009 court date; he failed to attend.
Following the incident, Miller moved to Montreal, where he remained until acquiring a job in Grande Prairie recently.
The court commended Miller on his action to start proceeding on the matter to finally reach a resolution.
