NEWS RELEASE
GUELPH POLICE SERVICE
****************************
On July 3, 2018 at approximately 10:30 p.m., Guelph Police were called to a licensed establishment downtown for a report of a male refusing to leave when asked by staff. When police arrived the male had already left.
The male was then observed acting erratically at a different licensed establishment, where he was also refusing to leave when asked by staff. When police attempted to direct the male out of the establishment, the male (allegedly) resisted and assaulted a police officer. Police removed the male from the establishment and when attempting to place him in a police vehicle, (it is alleged that) the male assaulted a police officer again.
As a result, a 44-year-old Guelph male was arrested and charged with fail to leave premise when directed and assault police (x2). He was held for a bail hearing.
