The Vancouver Police Department has issued a public warning about a convicted sex offender who it says "poses a significant risk to women" in the city.

Skylar Wayne Pelletier will be living in Vancouver while he serves a five-year long-term supervision order for sexual assault, breaking and entering, and assault convictions, according to a news release from the VPD.

Police describe Pelletier as a 21-year-old Indigenous man who stands 6'2" tall and weighs 165 pounds. He has a medium build, short black hair and brown eyes, police said.
