Kamloops Mounties believe they have a good description of a suspect involved in a stabbing at Riverside Park back in September.
RCMP have a released a composite sketch of one the culprits in hopes the public can help identify the person.
On Sept. 1, a 59-year-old man was stabbed in the chest as he collected bottles near the tennis courts late that night.
According to police, the victim first saw his two attackers near the Rotary Bandshell.
After walking toward the tennis courts, the man saw the two teens running to him.
That's when one of the suspects stabbed him in the chest.
The victim was able to run to a nearby payphone and call for help.
He was taken to Royal Inland Hospital and treated for non life-threatening stab wounds.
The suspect is described as having dark-coloured skin, standing five-foot-10 with an athletic build and wearing a dark short-sleeved shirt.
Police have no motive for the attack, but are asking anyone information to call the local detachment at 250-828-3000 or Crime Stoppers at 250-374-TIPS (8477).
