  • Man carries knife into North Van school

Mounties in North Vancouver are warning the public after a report of a suspicious man allegedly carrying a knife near a North Vancouver elementary school. 

Police say the incident took place on May 28th outside Westview Elementary and two callers were reported seeing a man carrying what appeared to be a knife near the school. 

R-C-M-P say one of the callers advised that the male had allegedly approached a female student in an "aggressive manner" before fleeing on foot. 

Police say the investigation is ongoing, but they want to reassure the local community that there is no continued risk to public safety.
