VicPD are asking for the public’s help in identifying a suspect who allegedly threatened and then spat on a BC Transit driver last week.
At around 6:45 p.m., on Tuesday March 1st, a BC Transit driver stopped to pick up a passenger in the area of Fort and Ashgrove Streets.
Upon entering the bus, the passenger immediately became confrontational with the driver and threatened to stab him.

The suspect is described as a 25 to 35-year old Caucasian man with a medium build. At the time of the incident, the suspect was wearing a dark hat and dark jacket.
Anyone who recognizes the suspect or has information about this incident is asked to call VicPD at (250) 995-7654.
