The Fort St. John RCMP is asking for the public’s help relating to a daytime assault that occurred a week ago…

Police say on September 29 at 1:30 PM, officers responded to a report of an adult male with injuries at the Circle K convenience store located at 9607 100th Ave. The man’s injuries consisted of wounds to the head that were indicative of an assault.

The investigation has led officers to believe the incident began 30 minutes prior near McDonald’s on Alaska Avenue.

“With both of these locations being high traffic areas, we have reason to believe that there are witnesses who may have seen what happened or have dash cam video that will provide valuable information to the investigation,” said Constable Chad Neustaeter, Fort St John RCMP Media Relations Officer.

The male victim was transported to hospital with serious injuries.

If anyone has any information on this incident, please contact the Fort St. John RCMP at 250-787-8100 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
