Mounties in Vernon are investigating what they’ve called a “serious assault” that took place at a Vernon, B.C., park Sunday night.
Around 8:30 p.m., an assault in the 2600 block of Highway 6 in Vernon was reported to police.
RCMP officers have not given any information about the victim, including their name or sex, but said it was an adult who sustained serious injuries and they are still in hospital in stable condition.
A portion of Polson Park was closed to the public to allow officers to continue their investigation at the scene.
“The information we have at this point is that this is a targeted incident and there is no known risk to the public,” Const. Chris Terleski said.
