Driver spat at in Kelowna

Police in Kelowna are hoping to learn more about a disturbing incident in the city last week during which a pedestrian is said to have confronted a woman driver and spat in her face.

The incident is said to have occurred on Sunday, Mar. 1, at the corner of Harvey Avenue and Spall Road.

RCMP say a witness reportedly followed and confronted the suspect, who allegedly produced and brandished a small knife before fleeing on foot.

The suspect has not been located but is described as a clean cut middle-aged man, seen wearing brown cowboy boots, blue jeans and a grey hoodie while dragging a purple suitcase.

Kelowna RCMP are looking to speak with the female driver of the Toyota Corolla who was alleged to have been assaulted during a confrontation, and any other witness who observed the incident and has not yet spoken to police.
