O’Brien praised the woman’s work not only to repel the attack, but also to provide excellent information to the police was one of the main reasons why the arrest was made so quickly. Further searches of Boscariol’s home and the vehicle involved took place on Saturday, March 26, as investigators continue to build a case. Boscariol will remain in police custody until at least Monday, March 28, when he will appear in court. He faces charges of assault with a weapon and attempted kidnapping. He has a minimal criminal record in British Columbia with a controlled substance possession in the Lower Continent in 2015, along with a relative breach of the suspension order. Police are making a second call for information about the incident, specifically around a black SUV that slowly passed by the woman at the center of the incident. O’Brien said she remembers seeing three men inside. “When we last saw this vehicle, it had turned right off Dickinson Street. at Schook Rd. “ Police are also trying to locate a brown, leather backpack that the woman lost during the attack.
