Kelowna RCMP have confirmed they are in the earliest stages of an investigation in relation to a social media post about a sexual assault on a teen.

The anonymous post was made May 7 in the Kelowna Alert Facebook group.

It alleges a 14-year-old girl and a friend were lured by a group of men into a grey truck. It then says she was offered a drink before waking up in a local hotel while being sexually assaulted.
