A Guelph man is facing charges after police say they responded to a disturbance outside of a downtown social services agency.
Officers received several calls on Tuesday morning about an individual threatening people with a large knife.
Police said the man was found and arrested minutes later and officers seized a pair of hunting-style knives.
Investigators also learned that the man was on a release order, with a condition to not be in possession of any knives.
A 35-year-old has a bail hearing on Thursday.
