REVELSTOKE – RCMP are hoping security camera images and witness interviews will lead to the arrest of a knife-wielding assailant in a gang brawl.

Police were called to the Victoria Road 7-Eleven just after 2:30 a.m. Friday where five men from Saskatchewan were attacked by about a dozen other adult males.

The man with the knife is described as Caucasian, about 5’8″ tall, with short hair and a goatee.

He was wearing a grey, zipper hoodie and blue jeans.
