A woman has sustained non-life threatening injuries following a robbery.
The woman was sitting in her car at the 2800 block of Highway 97 at 5:15 p.m. last night when a man opened her door, threatened her with a knife and demanding for her belongings.
After a struggle between the two, the suspect sprayed bear spray in the car before he ran away. The woman was helped by a local business before the RCMP and an ambulance arrived.
RCMP and their police dogs searched the area but didn’t find the suspect.
They describe the suspect as male with a dark complexion, 5’11” tall, wearing black pants, a black jacket and a black mask.
The woman was taken to and treated at the hospital and was later released.
