The West Kelowna RCMP are seeking help from the public in finding three people who are wanted for a kidnapping and aggravated assault.

The police investigation has resulted in charges laid against three people and arrest warrants being issued.

The first person wanted for aggravated assault, assault with a weapon and kidnapping is Crystal Richard. She is described as being five foot ten inches tall, weighing about 152 pounds, a slender build, brown eyes and long brown shoulder-length hair.

Briaden Rosch is wanted for two counts of kidnapping, aggravated assault, assault with a weapon and assault causing bodily harm. He is described as being six feet tall, weighing 201 pounds, a stocky build, green eyes, short brown/blonde hair and a full blonde/red beard.
