Police are looking for help identifying a suspect involved in an assault at a northeast Calgary LRT station last month.

On Nov. 27, police said a victim was stabbed at the Marlborough LRT Station around 3 p.m. after being followed by a man.

The victim attempted to move away from the suspect by walking onto a nearby Plus 15 Skywalk. He then tried to return to the station, but police said the suspect blocked his way.

A “physical struggle” ensued, in which the suspect pulled out a knife and stabbed the victim in the thigh.

The suspect then left the station on a northbound train.

Police said the victim called 9-1-1 and requested assistance. He was taken to hospital in stable condition.

The suspect is described as a man, approximately six feet tall with medium-to-long black hair.

He was last seen wearing a white hoodie, dark jacket and dark pants. At the time of the assault he was wearing dark pants, red and white shoes; and a red Calgary Flames jersey with the number 91 on it.

Anyone with information about this assault or the suspect is asked to contact police by calling 403-266-1234.

Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-222-8477, online or through the P3 Tips app.
