Police were called to the scene, but by the time officers arrived, the victim had already been taken to Oakville-Trafalgar Memorial Hospital (OTMH) where he underwent surgery for his injuries, which were described as non-life threatening. "During the course of witness interviews some patrons of the bar did say they had witnessed an altercation in the area of the bar, but as of yet nobody can provide a description of anybody who they saw in contact with the victim," said Det. Eric Schwab, Oakville Criminal Investigations Bureau. Police said the bar was busy at the time the fight broke out and are appealing to anyone who may have been there that evening -- or in the general vicinity of the plaza to contact them. Anyone with information that would assist in this investigation is asked to call the Oakville Criminal Investigations Bureau at 905-8254747, ext. 2215 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), online at www.haltoncrimestoppers.com or by texting `Tip201' with your message to 274637 (crimes). www.oakville.ca 2013 Budget Be informed.
