Abbotsford police are investigating a case of forcible confinement and aggravated assault.

Police say it started when with reports of a bloodied man with his hands tied running from a house.

The man was found a short distance away suffering from serious injuries, but police say they aren't believed to be life-threatening.

The male was transported by BC Ambulance Service and is receiving medical treatment.

AbbyPD patrol officers were called to the 2300 block of Clearbrook Road for reports of man fleeing from a house with his hands tied and covered with blood.

When police went into the home late last night they found it empty and say they're still working on a motive behind the assault.
