The Guelph Police Service stopped a man they say was on a vandalism spree.
They received a dropped 911 call around 7:40 p.m. Friday that was traced to an address in the area of Willow Road and Dawson Road.
Investigators say a man was found damaging a window of a home using a piece of wood.
They say he refused to comply with police and was placed under arrest after a brief struggle.
Investigators say they learned that there were several other places that the man had been to earlier in the day.
They say two nearby businesses were damaged, a side mirror was torn off a vehicle, and a table was thrown through a window at another residence.
A 40-year-old man from Guelph faces six counts of mischief and resisting arrest.
He is out on bail and will be back in court on May 12.
