Jul 29, 2025 | 8:15 AM

Brooks RCMP continue to investigate after an alleged assault just after midnight on Friday outside the Heritage Inn in Brooks.

Mounties had received a 911 call for threats being made, and upon arrival at the Heritage Inn spoke with a female victim.

She reported being approached by a Caucasian male in his 40s, described as having a heavy French accent.

A verbal altercation occurred near her truck, during which the male suspect allegedly spat on both the victim and her vehicle before breaking her cellphone.

The male then fled the area on foot, heading southbound on 2nd Street West.

Despite extensive patrols, officers were unable to locate the suspect, and the investigation remains ongoing.

If you have any information regarding this, contact the Brooks RCMP at 403-310-7267.
