A man was robbed of his iPhone at knifepoint in Boitanio Park Thursday, March 17, just after 4 p.m.
The victim was walking down into the upper part of the park from Boston Pizza when he was approached by two males, said Williams Lake RCMP Staff Sgt. Del Byron.
One of the suspects produced a knife and asked the victim if he had any spare change.
When he said no they took his wallet, rifled through it and then threw it on the ground.
“Then they went through his pockets, found his iPhone 5 and ran off,” Byron said, noting the victim was not harmed during the robbery.
Byron described the first suspect as First Nations, about five feet and10 inches tall, with a medium build.
He was wearing a black zip up hoodie, and a red hat with a Chicago Bulls logo on it.
He was the one to produce the buck hunting knife with a six-inch folding blade, Byron said.
The second suspect, also First Nations, is described as five foot 10 inches to six feet tall, with a slimmer build. He was wearing a black hoodie, no hat and black sunglasses.
The phone is described as a white iPhone 5 with a camouflage life-proof case.
“We had the police dog out and are still investigating the file,” Byron said.
