A bizarre encounter in South 91原创 ended with a newspaper delivery driver being pepper sprayed, and 91原创 RCMP are looking for the culprit.
The delivery driver was on his route just before 3 a.m. on Feb. 5, around 256th Street and 3rd Avenue, when he spotted what he described as a sports car driving erratically, said Cpl. Holly Largy, spokesperson for the 91原创 RCMP.
The deliver driver briefly followed the sports car, then stopped to make a delivery, Largy said.
While he was stopped, the sports car returned, its driver got out, and sprayed the victim with pepper spray. He then smashed the victim鈥檚 driver鈥檚 side window with an unknown object.
The sports car driver fled north on 256th Street.
The victim was not seriously injured in the strange attack.
