Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 23 Mar, 2018 12:01 PM
    Vancouver police have made an arrest following a series of unprovoked assaults last month.
     
    Police issued a warning last week and released surveillance images of a suspect who allegedly approached and punched, elbowed or pushed a stranger on four separate occasions in public places and then walked away.
     
    They say 39-year-old Colin Akwei of Coquitlam was arrested Wednesday following a tip from the public.
     
    Investigators are trying to determine a motive for the assaults.
