Saturday afternoon police were called to a model home in the south end. A local builder reported finding a window broken and a door ajar. Officers located blood on the broken window, and a trail of blood drops going inside the home where they found an empty beer can in the kitchen.

In a bedroom officers located a wallet on a nightstand. While officers were still investigating, they learned the owner of the wallet was being investigated for damaging a vehicle downtown by kicking it. Officers dealing with the male confirmed he had a fresh injury on his hand.

Audi seized from repeat offender
A Guelph man had his Audi seized indefinitely after he was caught for a second time driving without a licence or insurance.

Just after 4 p.m. Friday, a member of the Guelph Police Traffic Unit was patrolling on Victoria Road South when his automated licence plate reader alerted him to a vehicle with an expired permit. Investigation confirmed the driver has not been licensed since 2017.

The Audi SUV was stopped and the owner, who was driving, confirmed he does not have insurance. Investigation revealed the male was charged last summer with driving without a licence and driving without insurance.

A 40-year-old Guelph man is charged with driving without a licence, driving without insurance, driving a vehicle without a permit and using improper licence plates. To prevent continuation of the offences his vehicle will be impounded until the charges are dealt with or he can convince a court to release it.

After failing a roadside breath test he was transported to the police station, where further tests confirmed he had more than the legal amount of alcohol in his system. A 32-year-old Guelph man is charged with impaired driving and dangerous driving. His licence was suspended for 90 days and his vehicle was impounded for seven days.

Just before 5 p.m. Saturday, a vehicle was caught on radar travelling 87 km/h in a 50 km/h zone on Clair Road West.
