  • Unprovoked attack in East Vancouver

Police in Vancouver say they're looking for a suspect in a seemingly unprovoked attack at a bus stop in the Renfrew-Collingwood neighbourhood.

It happened yesterday morning near the corner of Kingsway and McKinnon Street.

Police say the suspect had been "yelling and acting erratically" before attacking a 58-year-old man who sustained significant head injuries.

He's expected to survive.
