Vancouver police said the incident happened just before noon on Dec. 17, 2020 at the 7-11 store near Alma Street and West 10th Avenue.

Police said a 73-year-old man with a cane was pushed to the ground by a man who walked away after the incident.

Eddie Elmer said the incident happened "in the heart of downtown" early Saturday morning.

Earlier in the year, Vancouver police reported a rise in anti-Asian crime amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

"I've had about 90 stitches and staples."

A warrant has been issued for Dorre Love's arrest, police said Thursday.

Police said the man could have been lying there in Strathcona Park for up to 12 hours before anyone called 911.

"From our understanding it was intentional, because as you can see from the video the sidewalk was quite wide."

"I got bruises on my face and some of my parts were bleeding. I was really upset nobody was really helping me at all."

One count of assault was sworn against Jamie Allen Bezanson on July 21, in connection with the March 13 incident in East Vancouver.
