Lethbridge Police say two men were able to avoid the paintballs, but a staff member was hit numerous times in the leg, arm, torso, and face. Following the initial assault, the truck reportedly returned to the scene and more paintballs were fired at clients walking along 1 Avenue South. This caused them to hit the ground and seek cover behind vehicles.
