City police are investigating a "serious assault" at a public space in downtown Barrie.

The stage area at Meridian Place, just below Memorial Square, had police tape around it this morning.

“It’s isolated obviously to that location; we do have an ongoing investigation,” Barrie police communications co-ordinator Peter Leon told BarrieToday on Monday. 

“It was a serious assault that has taken place, but details are limited at this time," he added. 

Leon said there could be an update later today.

BarrieToday will have more as information becomes available.
