On Nov. 17, 2019 at 12:48 a.m., an adult female security guard working the door of a bar located in the downtown core of the City of Guelph dropped money on the ground. An adult male patron picked up the money and put it in his pocket. The male refused to give the money back and a confrontation ensued.
