An investigation has been launched after a man was assaulted and robbed in a New Westminster neighbourhood last month.
Police responded to Boyd Street near the ICBC lot in Queensborough after reports that a man had been attacked by two suspects. The victim was found bleeding from a head injury he had sustained.
“The victim shared that he was struck, punched, and kicked before the suspects stole his personal items,” reads a release from police. “The suspects are not known to the victim.”
The Lower Mainland Integrated Police Dog Service was called in to assist with the search, but the two suspects were not found. The victim was transported to Royal Columbian Hospital to receive treatment.
