Police say the woman, who was allegedly assaulted, made her way into the building and then to hospital following the event.

Officers were called to the hospital at about 8:30 a.m. Police canvassed the neighbourhood for evidence.

Police say details are limited because the initial interview by police was brief as the safety and physical/mental well-being of the victim was the priority.

The woman will be re-interviewed, but the suspect is unknown to the victim, police say.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 306-777-6500 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
