Coquitlam RCMP are asking for the public’s assistance as investigators work to identify a suspect involved in an alleged assault with a weapon in Port Coquitlam earlier this month.
Police say the incident took place around 11:45 a.m. on January 12 near the 2800 block of Shaughnessy Street. CCTV footage reviewed by investigators confirmed an altercation occurred at that location.
According to RCMP, the suspect’s movements were traced through video surveillance before and after the incident. Officers believe the individual was near Lougheed Highway and Como Lake Avenue in Coquitlam around 11:00 a.m., prior to the assault. Following the altercation, the suspect was seen walking north on Shaughnessy Street and was last observed near the intersection of Coquitlam Avenue and Flint Street shortly before noon.
Acting Corporal George Han, media relations officer for Coquitlam RCMP, says investigators are relying on community support to move the case forward. Police are urging anyone who witnessed the incident or who may recognize the suspect to come forward.
Anyone with information related to the investigation is asked to contact Coquitlam RCMP at 604-945-1550 and reference file number 2026-931.
