Kelowna RCMP says it is searching for three suspects following a late-night assault on Monday.
According to police, a man in his 20s who had recently moved to Kelowna was found unconscious in an alley behind a business along the 1600 block of Abbott Street.
Police say the man had just relocated to the Okanagan from the Lower Mainland.
Police say they were flagged to the scene around 11:45 p.m., where they found a group of bystanders providing first-aid treatment to the victim.
They added that the man was transported to hospital with serious but non life-threatening injuries.
Kelowna RCMP says the suspects were last seen fleeing the area on foot, through back alleys toward Okanagan Lake.
