Kamloops RCMP ask for help to identify three possible robbery suspects

The Kamloops RCMP is seeking help to identify three men who may have been involved in a robbery and assault last month.

On Sept. 21, at around 2:15 p.m., Kamloops RCMP officers were dispatched to the 100 block of Yew Street where a 19-year-old had been allegedly robbed and assaulted by two men, according to an RCMP media release.

“Police are releasing images of three men who may have information about the robbery, and are asking the public to please look closely at these photos,” RCMP spokesperson Staff Sgt. Janelle Shoihet said in the release.

RCMP don't refer to the men as suspects.

The first male is described as shirtless, wearing a white baseball hat, sunglasses, blue jeans, and brown shoes and carrying what appeared to be a brown bag with a long strap. The second is shirtless and muscular, wearing grey or black knee-length shorts, a black baseball hat, sunglasses, black and white running shoes, and a black backpack. The third was associated with a blue and silver bicycle, and was wearing a black hoody, pants, shoes and had a backpack.

As a political scientist interested in social justice issues and current events, I hold topics of
politics, inequalities, community news, arts, and culture close to my heart. I find myself
privileged to be reporting local news, because local journalism is where us citizens go to get
access to information and news that directly impact our livelihoods. That is what I love about
it; I believe journalism to be the most important part for our community to be aware,
informed, and tightly bonded by the knowledge of what is happening around us. I am a fierce
believer in journalism being the fourth power of a democracy because, famously, knowledge
is power, and journalism puts that power in the hands of our community so that we can
continue growing, building bonds between each other and continuously keep learning about
ourselves.
