Bystanders told police 'they could see a male holding a child over a balcony, (while) a female could be heard screaming and damage was occurring inside the hotel,' said Const. Antoine Graebling in a news release Thursday. The man and woman were apprehended under the Mental Health Act and the child received medical care. Late last month, the B.C. Prosecution Service approved a charge of abandoning a child and one count of failing to provide the necessaries of life against Jason Frost, who isn't a Whistler resident. 'This was a highly visible event as Whistler was in the midst of its Canada Day celebrations,' said Graebling. 'We recognize the impact the incident had on individuals who witnessed this unfold in our community that day.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Graebling said investigators are 'incredibly thankful for the multiple witnesses that alerted the RCMP, which enabled our officers to act swiftly and professionally in managing this high-risk situation.' 'Their co-operation and actions were key that day in saving a child's life.' Graebling said no more details are being released now that the case is headed to court but noted that it's a reminder that the 'welfare and well-being of children and youth is a community responsibility.' Police urge everyone to be alert for the signs of abuse and neglect and to consult Child Protection Services B.C. for information on how to report potential cases. Anyone who has reason to believe a child or youth is being abused or neglected and that the parent or guardian is unwilling or unable to protect them must report it to the Children and Family Development Ministry at 1-800-663-9122. If there is immediate danger call 911. If you're a child or youth and would like to talk to someone, call 310-1234. jruttle@ Read More News World Sports News News

Atturra wins top Boomi APJ Partner award for sixth time in row
Atturra has been named APJ Partner of the Year by Boomi for the third consecutive year and the sixth time overall. The accolade recognises Atturra's work in supporting clients across the Asia Pacific region in optimising business operations with integration and automation solutions delivered through the Boomi platform. In addition to the APJ Partner of the Year award, Atturra received the ANZ Partner of the Year award, the Emerging Technology Partner of the Year award, and was named a winner in Boomi's AI Agent Hackathon. Atturra has maintained a partnership with Boomi since 2016, supporting more than 1,250 projects throughout Asia Pacific during that time. Jason Frost, Executive General Manager Data and Integration at Atturra, said, "Our ongoing multi-year awards recognition since 2018 with Boomi is testament to the success of our working relationship in providing demonstrable return on investment with the Boomi platform to customers across more than 1,250 projects in the Asia Pacific region." Frost continued, "Our winning experience in supporting organisations with implementation and advisory capabilities across various industries, including higher education, local government and utilities, along with implementation, helps organisations integrate and automate their systems to ultimately create 'moments that matter with data'." He added, "During the year ahead, we look forward to bringing more of our specialist Boomi practice expertise to enterprises in North America following our recent acquisition of Kitepipe, a Boomi Platinum Partner with over 10 years' experience in Boomi integration services and specialising in Boomi enablement, monitoring and managed services." The APJ Partner Awards from Boomi are determined by a review of how partners use the Boomi Enterprise Platform to foster creativity, innovation, and address complex challenges, as well as how they deliver environmental and social benefits to their clients. Jim Fisher, Vice President of Channels and Partners, APJ at Boomi, highlighted the role of partners in the Boomi ecosystem, stating, "Our growing community of partners is instrumental to our success, delivering smart, scalable solutions that help more than 23,000 global customers thrive. We are proud to celebrate our partners who go beyond implementation to drive measurable business impact for our customers, simplifying complexity and scaling innovation." Atturra's success in Boomi's AI Agent Hackathon involved the development of the Atturra CodeGuard AI Agent, a tool designed to monitor Boomi code quality and conduct process design reviews. This AI agent was made available through the Boomi Platform's AI Agent Marketplace. The AI Agent Hackathon, which took place from January to April 2025, invited participants to develop generative AI-powered agents using Boomi's AI Agent Framework. Atturra's entry was recognised in a competitive field, judged on criteria of innovation, use of the framework, business value, and quality of implementation by a panel comprising Boomi leaders and external industry experts. Atturra's recent acquisition of Kitepipe is expected to help extend its Boomi offering to enterprises in North America. Kitepipe, which has over a decade of experience as a Boomi integration specialist, now expands Atturra's capabilities in enablement, monitoring, and managed services. Atturra's partnerships and client base span sectors including local government, utilities, education, defence, government, financial services, and manufacturing, partnering with technology suppliers such as Microsoft, Denodo, Boomi, OpenText, Smartsheet, QAD, Infor, and Solace. Boomi's global ecosystem supports over 23,000 customers, with its partner community contributing to delivery of business solutions that address complex integration and automation challenges.
