Guelph police are investigating after three businesses in the same south-end plaza were entered early Tuesday.

Approximately 4:45 a.m. police received a call from a security guard who had attended to check on an alarm at a business near Gordon Street and Clair Road East. When he arrived he discovered three neighbouring businesses with their front doors smashed.

Surveillance video from one of the businesses showed three males entering the plaza on foot from Poppy Drive. One of the males was carrying what appeared to be a hammer which he used to smash the glass doors. Small amounts of cash were reported stolen from each of the businesses and one also had a tablet torn off a wall and smashed.

The incidents are under investigation.
