LETHBRIDGE – RCMP have released a composite sketch of a man wanted in connection to an alleged abduction and sexual assault in Cardston, Alta.
Officers say it happened at around 11 p.m. on Wednesday when a dark coloured van pulled up to an 18-year-old woman outside the Cardston High School.
The young woman reports being forced inside and taken to a remote location. Once there, she says she fought her way out and fled on foot, but not before being sexually touched.
The teenager has been reunited with her family, but police are asking for the public’s help to identify the men responsible.
On Monday, a composite sketch of one of the subjects was released. He is described as about 280 lbs, between 19 and 25 years old, with short hair and a clean-shaven face. He was wearing a red/burgundy ball cap backwards, jeans and a long sleeved black shirt.
The second suspect is described as a man in his 20s, with a smaller frame, long nose and a 5 o’clock shadow. He was wearing a reddish coloured ball cap, with black hair visible underneath.
Mounties are also asking Albertans to be on the lookout for an older, dark navy blue van with tinted back windows, silver chrome stripes along the side and rectangular headlights.
Anyone who can help identify these men or the van is asked to call Cardston RCMP at 403-653-4931. Anonymous tips can also be submitted online through Crime Stoppers.
