Over the last few months, we've noticed what appears to be an uptick in unprovoked stranger attacks, so we asked our strategic researchers to take a deep dive into the numbers.
What they found is concerning: over four people a day are the target of a random, unprovoked assault.
#VPDNews: Vancouver Police have released video of another unprovoked stranger attack, which sent a 25-year-old man to hospital Saturday with life-threatening stab wounds.
Anyone with information is asked to call investigators at 604-717-2541.
