RCMP seek details on assault of woman

RCMP are hoping the public can help identify two women who may have been involved in an assault in downtown Kelowna this summer.

On August 18, 2022, at approximately 9:30 p.m., RCMP located a female near Mills Street and Bernard Ave.

“The female had been assaulted and was bleeding heavily from a wound to her arm,” said Constable Mike Della-Paolera. “The female was transported to KGH, where she received medical treatment for non-life threatening injuries. The female victim has been unable to provide officers with details on how she was injured.”

Surveillance showed an earlier altercation had occurred between the injured woman and two females possibly known to the victim. A male was also present with the two females during the incident.

“Kelowna RCMP would like the public’s assistance in identifying the persons involved to understand what took place the night of August 18,” said Della-Paolera, media relations officer.
