Squamish Police News: Man Allegedly Threatens Woman with Knife Outside Third Avenue Building, Prompts RCMP Response
Squamish RCMP was called to Downtown Squamish this past Sunday after reports of a man threatening a woman with a knife and unleash his dog on a resident.
On May 6, just before 10 pm, a woman called the police to report an assault after a man allegedly ‘motioned’ with a knife pointed at her. The alleged threatening behaviour happened after the man had a verbal exchange with some people outside a building on Third Avenue. He also allegedly unleashed his dog at one of those gathered outside the building.
Squamish RCMP didn’t say if they took any action on the man, but said they continue to investigate the incident. Police also added they don’t believe public safety is at risk.
This week, on May 5, Squamish RCMP also issued an impaired driver 90-day prohibition and impounded his car for a month after he drove it into a ditch on the Sea to Sky highway.
Anyone with any information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Squamish RCMP at 604-892-6100, or contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS, or go to the website www.solvecrime.ca
