Looking for information on a soldier who assaulted 5 youths on Canada Day.

[bogie]

About 2:30 am , Edmonton AB, following 2007 Canada Day celebrations, five youths were walking home on Whyte Ave, close to 85St., when 3 men came out of Honest Mur's Bar and Grill and approached the youths. One was stating he was a soldier (Caucasian male, dark brown to black hair around 6' 5", built like a brick house and extremely drunk), two appeared to be possibly civilians,( one native male and one black male) and the soldier attacked the kids. Three 15 y.o. were struck by the soldier who apparently was trying to vent some pent-up frustrations of constantly being trained but not being able to go away on tour to practice his training and decided to practice on the kids, (as he kept repeating to the kids.) The boys kept stating their ages and asked why were they being hit by this soldier but he seemed not to care. He was wearing a maroon coloured collared shirt and khaki shorts and these possibly could be reserve unit clothing according to the MPs at CFB Edmonton. Incidents have been reported to both civilian and military police. I am searching for any reserve unit that may have issued these clothings to try to find this individual so he may be formally charged. Being ex-military myself, Reg forces, I find this behaviour disgusting and believe this individual should be thrown out of his unit and into a prison for taking his frustrations out on innocent kids. The kid who got the worse of the beating from this soldier, who is my son, is a straight A student, who is enrolling in RMC as soon as he graduates from high school, has never been in trouble ever, never drank, did drugs, or anything, was just out enjoying the celebrations with his friends on his last day before leaving to see his father in B.C., who is also ex-military, and is just completely blown away from this soldier's behaviour. So are the other parents as well. If anybody believe the may know the unit. please contact me via email as I would be greatly appreciative. Thank you. [email protected]
