ON Friday, May 23 at approximately 4:05 p.m. members of Surrey Police Service (SPS), Delta Police Department (DPD) and Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit (CFSEU) responded to the area of 92A Avenue and 120 Street in Surrey in response to a stabbing. 

Police located a man suffering from a stab wound to his arm and immediately rendered aid. The victim was transported by BCEHS to a local hospital for treatment. A youth suspect was subsequently located and arrested. They were held for a bail hearing and subsequently charged with a number of Criminal Code offences. 

A 15-year-old male youth has been charged with:

  • One count of aggravated assault
  • One count of assault with a weapon
  • One count of possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose
  • One count of carrying a concealed weapon 

Police said that while the motive of the incident is still under investigation, this does not appear to be a random attack. The next court appearance for the youth is June 11.
