Kamloops RCMP release another photo of suspect involved in assault of teenager at McArthur Island

KAMLOOPS — Kamloops RCMP are releasing another image of a suspect from the assault of a teenager at McArthur Island skate park.

In a news release issued Wednesday (May 10) morning, Cpl. Crystal Evelyn says police are hopeful that releasing a clearer photo will help them gather more information and identify the suspect.

The investigation stems from April 4 where officers received the report of a 14-year-old who had been assaulted by an adult man in the 15500-block of Island Parkway.

The suspect is described as a white man with a reddish beard near the age of 35 years. He was seen wearing black pants, dark running shoes, a black hat, an orange hoodie and a grey hoodie with a graphic blue t-shirt. The new image is of the same suspect with his hat and shirts off.
