Update from family members:
My nephew came from Kingston Ontario in April of this year he is 31 years old and started to work at Ag Foods in May. He is assistant produce manager at the Osoyoos store. He walked to the Sage pub after leaving the company Xmas party.
He was refused service and was about to leave when a group at another table invited him over to join and wanted to know if he had any drugs or know where to get some. Kyle said no and left the bar.
Members of that group followed him to corner of Ponderosa & Cottonwood Drive where the assault took place. Kyle thinks there was 3 men. He was hit on the head numerous times with what Kyle thinks was a large wine bottle, kicked in the face and stabbed in shoulder and knee.
Kyle managed to stagger back to the Sage Pub and paramedics were called. He spent 6 days in Penticton General Hospital. He needs dental work and hopefully regains full vision in his right eye.
AG ( Derek and all the staff ) have been very supportive in all this and will be welcoming him back to work when he is ready.
Thanks to everyone for their support.
