They said the incident happened earlier in the morning, and the victim was holding an Open House, and was showing the unit to the male suspect.

The suspect is described as:

  • Indigenous male
  • Between 35-45 years old
  • Approximately 5’10
  • Medium build
  • At the time of the incident he was wearing transitions glasses, a dark blue hoody, baseball cap and light blue jeans with rips in the knees

Additionally, we are looking to speak with anyone who has video surveillance or dash cam footage capturing the suspect leaving the location around 11:15 am,” said Cpl. Jennifer Cooper.

Anyone with information is asked to call the detachment.
