Mission RCMP are asking the public for help after two alleged abduction attempts occurred in the community within a single day.

The first incident happened overnight between Sunday and Monday on Logan Avenue. Police say a woman walking in the area was approached by a white SUV driven by a South Asian man. According to investigators, the man allegedly asked the woman for sex and attempted to pull her into the vehicle. The woman escaped, but may have been exposed to bear spray during the encounter.

Later the same day, at approximately 6:30 p.m., another woman reported being approached on 3rd Avenue by a man matching a similar description driving a white SUV. She told a bystander that the driver tried to force her into the vehicle after requesting sex. The woman was able to leave the scene before police arrived.

Investigators are examining whether the incidents targeted women from vulnerable sectors of the community. The suspect is described as about 180 centimetres tall, with a beard, short hair, and tattoos on his arms.

Mission RCMP are urging anyone with information to come forward. Police emphasize community awareness and personal safety while the investigation continues.
