Guelph police are investigating and seeking witnesses after staff members at a west end business were threatened by a knife-wielding man Sunday.
Just before 6 p.m., a man entered a business near Silvercreek Parkway North and Willow Road while holding a knife and repeatedly yelling that he had a knife. A staff member began following the male while advising customers to stay away from him. The man threatened to stab the employee before eventually leaving the store.
The male was described as white, in his 30s, 5’5” with blue eyes, blonde hair and a thin build. He was wearing a black winter jacket with the hood pulled up over a baseball hat. He was holding a chef-style knife approximately 20 centimetres in length with a green handle.
