St. Albert RCMP are seeking a man who threatened to stab a male youth.
On Dec. 7 at 1:35 p.m., the youth was walking southwest on Sir Winston Churchill Drive when an older man approached him, showed him a grey knife and said “do you want me to stab you?”
The youth ran away and got home safely, while the culprit ran the opposite direction, according to an RCMP press release.
The release describes the man as light skinned, taller, thin, and 30-40 years old with blonde and brown spiked hair. He was wearing a grey jacket with a fur-lined hood and black glasses, and he was carrying a plastic bag.
He may have a grey knife (possibly a hunting knife).
If anyone has information about the suspect they are asked to contact St. Albert RCMP at 780-458-7700. Those who wish to remain anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS), online at www.P3Tips.com or by using the “P3 Tips” app available through the Apple App or Google Play Store.
