The investigation remains ongoing and before the courts, therefore, no additional information will be released at this time.

A year earlier, however, RCMP said the victim and the suspect were not believed to have known one another.

Those who witnessed this event or have information pertaining to it and have yet to speak with a police officer, please contact the Kelowna RCMP at 250-762-3300 and reference file number 2022-50738.
