KAMLOOPS — Kamloops RCMP are hoping to contact a potential witness in an ongoing sexual assault investigation in the city’s West End.
In a news release issued Monday (July 17) morning, police say a woman was jogging near the walking path between Strathcona Terrace and St. Paul Street West when the assault took place shortly after 9 p.m. on July 9. The jogger is as a woman wearing florescent yellow shorts, a black sports top and pink sweatband jogging toward Powers Road from the St. Paul Street pathway.
RCMP previously said the victim was walking on a path between Strathcona Terrace and St. Paul Street West when a man closed in from behind and grabbed her “in a sexual nature.” The assault led to an altercation and the victim was able to escape. The suspect left the area, walking toward Strathcona Terrace.
