The video shows the suspect approach the victims’ vehicle with something in his hand, and punch the driver’s side window, shattering it. He then also returns to the victim’s vehicle a few moments later, grabs a cellphone off the dashboard, then throws it at the passenger. Both occupants of the vehicle sustained injuries.

The investigation identified the passenger of the suspect vehicle as the registered owner, but despite numerous attempts — including a few days ago — the owner has refused to identify the suspect.
“The video is hard to watch, and the violence displayed is simply inexcusable,” said RCMP Cpl. Mike Kalanj. “We are confident that someone will be able to identify the suspect, and we ask that they come forward and speak to our investigators.”
Anyone who can identify the suspect, or has any information, can contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999 and quote File No. 2025-29201. Those wishing to remain anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
