City police say Frank Vantroba has turned himself in.
The Thunder Bay Police Service issues an arrest warrant Tuesday after the 57-year-old man failed to appear for the first day of his trial for criminal negligence causing bodily harm.
The charge stems from an incident where a dog belonging to Vantroba allegedly mauled an 11-year-old boy at Tarbutt Park in November 2012.
Vantroba was scheduled to appear in court Thursday morning.
