Vancouver police are asking for the public’s help in locating a charged suspect who failed to return to a halfway house.

Thirty-three-year-old Nicole Edwards was last seen on July 20 at a halfway house in Surrey. She failed to abide by her court-ordered conditions and left the halfway house.

Edwards and an additional person are believed to be responsible for a violent sexual assault that occurred in Oppenheimer Park in April. She has been charged with nine counts of offences relating to sexual assault, assault and confinement. She was released from custody with several court-imposed conditions, and she is now wanted for breaching those conditions.

Nicole Edwards is described as five-foot-three, approximately 125 pounds with brown hair, brown eyes, and a “Wahkesh” tattoo on her neck.

This is the VPD’s second plea for assistance with locating Edwards, as she has failed to report to her bail supervisor in the past.
