On Tuesday, Dec. 31, 2024, at approx. 11:30 a.m., a Ukrainian man was approached by an unknown man at the T & T Supermarket located at 25 Heritage Meadows Way S.E. It is believed the unknown man overheard the victim speaking Ukrainian on the phone before he <\/a>approached the victim & began to verbally harass & threaten the Ukrainian man inside the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAs the victim exited the store, the suspect allegedly retrieved a knife from his truck & then approached the victim again, threatening to physically harm him, making references to the ongoing Ukrainian & Russian conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The victim went back into the store & store security offered assistance & called police. The victim was not injured & the suspect fled prior to police arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After reviewing CCTV footage & exhausting all investigative leads to identify & locate the suspect, officers are turning to the public for their help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The suspect is described as having a light skin tone, in his 50s, wearing blue jeans, a dark jacket & a baseball cap with Russian symbols. He was seen driving off in a black, or dark blue, Nissan Frontier, with a detachable Russian flag clipped to the driver side door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Any evidence of a hate motivation is considered by the courts after a person is found guilty of the connected crime. If the judge decides during sentencing that hate was a motivation for the offence, it is an aggravating factor that can add to the convicted person\u2019s sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the Calgary Police Service non-emergency number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
