RCMP say they found a woman ‘unresponsive’ in a hallway on the building’s 12th floor after responding to a call on Saturday, March 21.

The woman, who has not been identified, was taken to hospital, treated and released later that day.

Police say they believe she was sexually assaulted and are asking for the public’s help in identifying whoever may have been behind the attack.
