Eating his donut in the wrong place led to a dozen criminal charges for a Guelph male on Monday.

About 4:45 p.m., Guelph police were called to a business on Woodlawn Road East near Victoria Road North, where a male had taken off his mask and was eating a donut inside despite staff asking him to leave the premises.

Police arrived and located the male still on scene and he was arrested under the Trespass to Property Act. During a search subsequent to arrest, police discovered stolen property including clothing and grocery items. He was also in possession of unopened mail, and several identity documents and credit cards in various names.

A 33-year-old Guelph male is charged with five counts of possessing identity documents, three counts of possessing a stolen credit card, three counts of possessing stolen property and breach of probation.

He will appear in a Guelph court May 14.
