An Ajax man faces an assault charge after another man was lured to a south-end address where he was beat up.
Last Thursday, shortly before midnight, police were called for reports of a disturbance at a downtown bar. Officers determined this to be a consensual fight and all parties were sent on their way.
Approximately four hours later, the girlfriend of one of the combatants called police from Guelph General Hospital. She said after officers separated the parties, she got a text from one of the other involved males asking her and her boyfriend to attend an address on Scottsdale Drive to discuss the situation. When they arrived in an Uber they were met by several males, two of whom were holding baseball bats.
The male who had sent the text attacked the victim, punching him in the face and throwing him to the ground where he struck his head. He was then repeatedly punched and stomped on by some of the other males. The victim sustained a concussion and several cuts and bruises.
Investigation led to the arrest of a 21-year-old Ajax man, who is charged with assault causing bodily harm. He will appear in court May 14. The investigation is ongoing to identify the other involved males.
