Victoria Police Department gratified by the response to a call for information about sexualized violence

Detectives with the Victoria Police Department's special victims unit are gratified by the response to a call for information about sexualized violence alleged to have involved a former employee at a downtown Victoria restaurant.

Police issued a public notice on Monday urging witnesses or victims to come forward if they have details about incidents at the bar and grill.

Since then, police say the response has been "amazing" and they are working through the many tips, although they caution the process takes time and patience is necessary.

Officers were flagged about alleged sexualized violence at the eatery after several posts were spotted on social media on Sunday.
