On June 20, Kingston police say a physical altercation started at City Park between a man and the reporter, which Rebel Media identified in their own story to be David Menzies.

Police say that a verbal exchange between the reporter and two suspects led to a suspects pushing Menzies, and another pouring liquid on his cameraman.

Kingston police were called to the scene but did not find the suspect in the assault. Now, they are asking for the public’s assistance to help identify him.
