RCMP have released details about a large fight outside a Tim Hortons in Rutland.

On Wednesday, April 12, at around 9:00 p.m., RCMP received multiple reports of a large fight involving approximately 10-20 people, in a parking lot at 160 Hollywood Rd N.

“Police attended and have arrested four men for assault at this time. One male victim was taken to hospital with non life-threatening injuries. The four men were later released on assault charges with conditions and a pending court date,” Cpl. Michael Gauthier said.

The investigation is still ongoing and police are asking the public to come forward with any additional cell phone or dash camera video of the fight, for Kelowna RCMP file 2023-19446.

“Police determined that several witnesses on scene required the assistance of language experts and have secured additional language resources on site next week to assist as necessary,” Gauthier added.
