  • Stranger punched in the face in unprovoked attack

Police in Richmond say they're looking for people who may have witnessed an unprovoked stranger assault in the city's downtown core this past Tuesday.

R-C-M-P say the victim was punched in the face and suffered minor injuries in the alleged attack that occurred at around noon along Number 3 Road, across from the C-F Richmond Centre.

The Mounties say the alleged attacker had been in a mall just before the assault. 

The suspect is described as a Black man with a heavy build, and anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the R-C-M-P.
