In what seemed like something out of The Walking Dead, Guelph police arrested a man on Tuesday morning allegedly carrying a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire.
Officers arrested the 24-year-old man in the downtown core at around 8 a.m.
Police said the man had been released from custody in January and was under a court order to not carry any weapons.
