The Guelph Police Service’s K9 unit is once again getting credit for an arrest.
Police were called to a home in the east end around 11:30 p.m. Thursday in regards to an assault report.
When they arrived at the home, the suspect had fled the scene.
General, a police service dog, was called in to help track down the suspect. Minutes later, just after 12 a.m., the suspect was found and arrested.
A 30-year-old Guelph man is now facing charges of assault, uttering threats, forcible confinement and possession of a controlled substance.
