Officers went to the site off Baker Street where they discovered a man on top of an eight-storey tall crane.

Investigators say after two hours of negotiating, the man climbed down the crane and was arrested.

There were no reports of injuries.

A 49-year-old man from Guelph will be in a Guelph courtroom on July 2.
