The man accused of a violent assault on a man at Okanagan Lake Beach last May was back in court earlier this week facing new charges.
Thomas KrugerAllen, 21, appeared in Penticton court on Monday, Oct. 21 facing seven charges stemming from an incident that occurred on Oct. 19, according to court documents.
