A Guelph man faces several charges after three security officers were assaulted Wednesday morning.
Just after 7 am police were called to Guelph General Hospital where a patient had been discharged but refused to leave the facility. When asked by security to leave, he uttered a threat and lunged at the three officers. A physical struggle ensued, during which one officer was punched in the face and poked in the eye before the man was restrained.
A 31-year-old Guelph man is charged with three counts of assault, uttering threats and breaching a probation order. He was held for a bail hearing Thursday.
