Murder Outside Kamloops Sushi Restaurant, Police Seeking Suspect

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 24 Jan, 2016 10:46 AM
    KAMLOOPS, B.C. — The owner of a Kamloops sushi restaurant says a fatal stabbing on his doorstep was a "nightmare."
     
    Hatsuki Sushi owner Sam Zhang says one woman and two men appeared to be drunk when they entered the restaurant late Friday afternoon.
     
    He says they left before placing an order, started arguing noisily outside and one of the men was stabbed.
     
    Zhang says the victim and the sobbing woman took refuge inside the restaurant, where employees tried to stop the bleeding.
     
    RCMP Cpl. Cheryl Bush says the 30-year-old victim was taken to hospital with serious injuries and later died.
     
    She says the suspect fled on foot and has not been located but the investigation is ongoing.
     
    Bush says the victim and the suspect were known to each other and the attack was not random. She has refused to release the suspect's name.
     
    "We're not releasing any further details," she says. "We have identified a suspect."
     
    Zhang says the restaurant was busy at the time and all his employees tried to help the victim.
     
    "It's really scary," he says. "It's just a nightmare."
