Edmonton police said Friday they are looking for a suspect accused of pepper-spraying peace officers at the University of Alberta before fleeing the scene earlier in the week.

Two University of Alberta peace officers called southwest division police for help on Monday around 11:45 p.m. after responding to a disturbance near 85 Avenue and 112 Street.

According to police, the peace officers were pepper-sprayed while trying to arrest two people on outstanding warrants.

A woman was arrested at the scene and later released with a promise to appear. But a man fled the scene on a bicycle.

Police are searching for Robert Brookes, 30.
