The Kelowna RCMP General Investigations Section is investigating a stabbing that left one person seriously injured late Thursday night.

Police say officers were called to the roadside near Dilworth Drive and Summit Drive at approximately 10:15 p.m. following reports of a stabbing.

The victim suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to hospital for treatment.

RCMP Police Dog Services were deployed to search the area for a suspect, but no arrests have been made.

Investigators believe the suspect may have initially fled on a scooter. Police located and seized a scooter as part of the ongoing investigation.

According to RCMP, the victim was unable to provide details about what happened due to their condition.

At this stage, police say they are unable to determine the level of risk to the public.

“Investigators have since processed and released the outdoor scene,” said Staff Sgt. Kris Clark of the BC RCMP. “A canvass for CCTV footage from nearby residences and businesses is underway as investigators work to identify and locate the suspect.”

Kelowna RCMP are asking anyone who witnessed the incident or has relevant information to contact them at 250-762-3300.
