Late Night Stabbing in Kelowna Neighbourhood
Investigators say the suspect fled on a scooter, and police are canvassing nearby cameras and witnesses for video evidence.
A person was hospitalized with serious, non-life-threatening injuries after being stabbed near the intersection of Dilworth Drive and Summit Drive in Kelowna late Thursday, Sept. 3.
Police responded around 10:15 p.m. to the scene but were unable to locate the suspect despite using police dog services; investigators initially struggled to obtain detailed information due to the victim's condition.
The suspect is believed to have initially fled on a scooter, which was later abandoned and subsequently seized by police as part of the ongoing investigation.
Staff Sgt. Clark stated, "Investigators have since processed and released the outdoor scene." A canvass for CCTV footage from nearby residences and businesses is underway to identify the suspect.
The Kelowna RCMP General Investigations Section is leading the probe; anyone with information, including CCTV or dash camera video, is urged to contact the Kelowna RCMP at 250-762-3300.
