Sketch of Assault Suspect Released

RCMP have released a composite sketch of man being sought in connection to an alleged violent assault of a woman in Kelowna.

The suspect is believed to have chased after the woman, tackled her to the ground, and dragged her onto a residential property before she was able to flee in the area of Elliot and Richter the night of Oct 12th.

“Since the incident, a specially trained forensic artist travelled to the BC interior to meet personally with the victim at the Kelowna RCMP Detachment,” says Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey, spokesman for the Kelowna Regional RCMP. “Working with our witness in a cognitive interview setting, the artist created a composite sketch of the assault suspect.”

RCMP say the suspect is described as a Caucasian, possibly part Filipino man, in his early 20’s, of medium build, with shoulder length brown and black hair. He was seen wearing all black or dark colored clothing and riding a skate board.
