At around 5 in the morning back on Wednesday, Prince George RCMP had to respond to two separate incidents of bear spray attacks in the area of Spruce Street and 15 Avenue.
The first case saw the victim reportedly waiting at a crosswalk when three men wearing black approached him and tried to take his backpack.
When the victim did not hand over his backpack, one of the men sprayed bear spray in his face.
The second victim reportedly saw the initial incident take place and when she called out to the men, the men went after her and proceeded to spray her in the face as well while she was also supposedly being struck in the leg by the men.
The Prince George RCMP are asking that anyone who saw the attack or has dashcam footage of the reported area at the time of the attack, contact them at 250-561-3300.
