On July 10, 2023, around 5:40 p.m., Kamloops RCMP frontline officers attended an address on Morris Place in response to the call.

While members were attempting to speak with the woman, she allegedly assaulted them. The woman was arrested and a struggle ensured, leading to one of the officers getting injured. The suspect’s assaultive behaviour continued after she was transported to the detachment.
She was held in custody to sober up safely, then connected with community services. The officer’s injury was non-life threatening.
