A 93-year-old man has been taken to the hospital with a broken hip after Vancouver police say he was knocked to the ground in Chinatown Tuesday.
It happened just after 3 p.m. The VPD says the man, who has lived in the neighbourhood for 30 years, was heading to a bakery in the area of Main and East Pender streets when he was “pushed over by a stranger.”
The senior was helped by several bystanders before he was taken to be treated.
Police have released surveillance footage of the incident, noting it happened in a heavy pedestrian and vehicle traffic area. Investigators are hoping the public can help identify the suspect.
