Halton Regional Police say the incident happened at about 5 p.m. on Saturday at the Comfort Inn on South Service Road when a guest staying at the hotel was reportedly approached by a man who pulled out a gun and assaulted them.
Police say the alleged victim managed to get away and call 911 and that the suspect fled on foot.
No one was injured.
