Burnaby RCMP is asking the public to assist in identifying a suspect that allegedly assaulted two victims during a road rage incident that occurred last August.

On August 19, 2025, Burnaby RCMP frontline officers responded to a report of an alleged assault that resulted from a road rage incident on Dover Street, near Royal Oak Avenue. The victim vehicle had external and internal dashcam video that captured the alleged assault.

Video of the incident shows the suspect approach the victim’s vehicle and punch the driver’s side window, shattering it. Though the entire interaction lasts only seconds, the suspect also returns to the victim’s vehicle, grabs a cell phone off the dashboard and throws it at the passenger. Both the passenger and the driver sustained injuries from the incident.

The investigation identified the passenger of the suspect vehicle as the registered owner. Despite numerous attempts, including just days ago, the registered owner has refused to identify the suspect.

“The video is hard to watch, and the violence displayed is simply inexcusable,” said Cpl. Mike Kalanj with the Burnaby RCMP. “We are confident that someone will be able to identify the suspect, and we ask that they come forward and speak to our investigators.”

Police are asking anyone that can identify the suspect or has any information that can assist our investigators, to please contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999 and quote file number 2025-29201. Those wishing to remain anonymous may contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
