Victoria police are looking for witnesses and additional information after Forests Minister Katrine Conroy was knocked down and injured Tuesday night.
She received minor injuries and was treated in hospital after encountering an unknown person as she was walking in the area of the B.C. legislature between 8 and 8:30 p.m.
Police say someone might have helped her afterward and they would like to speak to that individual.
B.C. Premier John Horgan said on his Twitter account Wednesday evening that he was upset by the incident. “Kat’s one of the toughest people I know and she’ll continue working hard for people,” wrote Horgan, asking any potential witnesses to contact Victoria police.
Call police at 250-995-7654, extension 1, with any information or report anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-80-222-TIPS (8477).
