RCMP cordoned off a section of Boitanio Park Wednesday night and Thursday morning to investigate the scene of a reported aggravated assault.

A 52-year-old man was sent to hospital suffering from multiple injuries, including serious facial injuries, in what police are calling an "isolated incident."

Const. Andrew Waters said the man was found at 8:47 p.m. in the alleyway of 605 Carson Drive, along the northwest edge of Boitanio Park.

Police are trying to determine the motive for the attack and are looking for anyone with information to please come forward.

Staff. Sgt. Del Byron said at this time there is no evidence to connect this latest incident to the recent street gang violence in the lakecity that saw two men shot in a targeted shooting in Glendale Jan. 2.
