West Shore RCMP responded to an incident outside a coffee shop in Langford after bystanders called 911 Thursday morning.

An eye witness told the Gazette that a man confronted a woman outside Poncho’s Coffee House at the corner of Goldstream Avenue and Bryn Maur Road shortly after 10 a.m. and accused her of taking his cell phone. The woman appeared to be greatly stressed from the situation and collapsed briefly on the sidewalk. She managed to stand up before two officers arrived and spoke with both individuals.
