A Guelph man is facing arson and other charges after a fire broke out near an apartment complex.
Crews from Guelph Fire Department went to a building on Waterloo Avenue near Wellington Street Wednesday just after 8:30 p.m.
Investigators say some unknown items were thrown into the fire causing several small explosions.
They say the fire destroyed parts of a garden but no one was hurt.
Investigators say a man was found near the scene, and they later determined he was bound by two different court orders not to be at that address.
A search of the individual turned up a pair of knives.
The 36-year-old was arrested and held for a bail hearing.
