Guelph police charge Cambridge man after investigation into unwanted calls | Globalnews.ca

A Cambridge man faces criminal harassment charges after police say a woman received so many unwanted calls she had to change her phone number.

Police say the woman, who was known to the man, received hundreds of unwanted calls.

They say the man then called a business in Guelph, where the woman and several of her family members work, filling up their voicemails and causing the company to turn off their phones several times.

Investigators say the woman’s supervisor tried to intervene by phoning the man back, only to have him receive calls and texts on his personal phone from the same individual.

Apparently, several calls were made to the business by the accused on July 18 as investigators were taking statements from the victims.

The 25-year-old man will appear in a Guelph court on Oct. 7.
