In a Facebook post, Holy Guacamole said the location was being manned by a pregnant woman and a grandson.
It went on to say they have had to deal with issues before but this has them reconsidering the spot’s future.
“We have endured a few broken windows and vandalism but today things got a lot worse at this location,” the post read.
“Our staff’s safety is our top priority and to remain open at Victoria Street is under consideration, to be honest.”
Police described the suspect as a white man, around six feet tall, with a thin build and blonde hair. He was last seen wearing dark pants, white shoes, red gloves and a plaid jacket.
Police are asking anyone with information to call 519-570-9777 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
