KAMLOOPS — RCMP are looking for the public’s help as they investigate a stabbing on the Kamloops North Shore.

Detachment spokesperson Cpl. Crystal Evelyn says the stabbing took place last Saturday (April 15) in the 400-block of Tranquille Road. At about 5:18 p.m., RCMP were called to the victim’s location, about a block away.

The man was suffering from stab wounds and was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

“As part of the ongoing investigation, police have obtained security video from the 400-block of Tranquille Road where the assault occurred, which includes an image of the suspect,” said Evelyn. “The assault was very deliberate and direct, and numerous people were present to witness while it occurred. We are requesting they contact police as soon as possible to discuss what transpired.”
