A man who produced a knife near a Hanna nightspot was given a 30-day sentence in jail.
Michael Duane Fast appeared in provincial court in Drumheller on Friday, April 27. He faced three charges and pleaded guilty to possession of a weapon for dangerous purpose.
The court heard how on April 15, 2010 the accused was in a fight near the National Hotel in Hanna. During the fight Fast produced a standard pocketknife.
Others at the scene intervened before it was used in any fashion.
Fast is 26 and currently resides in Calgary.
Judge Grieve sentenced Fast to 30 days. Charges of causing a disturbance and failing to attend were withdrawn.
