A 34-year-old man remains in custody after allegedly assaulting two tourists last night.

 On October 21 at approximately 11:00 p.m., Vancouver Police officers on routine patrol witnessed an altercation between a suspect and two people near Abbott and West Cordova streets.

 Officers immediately intervened and safely handcuffed the suspect.

 The two victims were tourists from Calgary walking back from the Bruno Mars concert. The suspect allegedly punched the male victim on the arm with a sharp object, believed to be glass. The force of that contact pushed the female victim into a nearby light pole.

 The male victim sustained a cut to his left forearm and was treated at the scene by Emergency Health Services.

 The suspect, identified as 34-year-old Derek Dale Driscoll, had two outstanding warrants, one in relation to an alleged breach of probation order and one for failing to attend court.

 He was arrested, transported to jail, and has now been charged with assault, assault causing bodily harm, and assault with a weapon.

 Driscoll remains in custody awaiting a bail hearing.
