The Estevan Police Service (EPS) is asking for the public’s assistance in locating the suspect in an alleged assault that occurred on July 13 in the vicinity of Seventh Street and Souris Avenue North.

Police are looking for 25-year-old Dillon Genaille. He was working in the Estevan area at the time of the incident, but is from Manitoba and has since left the Estevan area. Charges for assault causing bodily harm and breaching conditions of an undertaking have been laid, and there is currently an arrest warrant for Genaille.

Police have reached out to Genaille in hopes he will turn himself in, but he has not done so as of yet. If anyone has information on the whereabouts of Genaille, they can call the Estevan Police Service at 306-634-4767, their local police agency or Crime Stoppers.

A 27-year-old man suffered significant injuries to his upper body, including head and facial injuries, during the assault. The victim received initial treatment in Estevan before going to Regina for further treatment.

The EPS has said previously that the alleged suspect and the victim are known to each other, and there wasn't a threat to the public.
