YET another business in Surrey’s Payal Business Centre has been targeted.

On Wednesday, four gunmen stole about $10,000 from a money exchange company. They made an unsuccessful attempt to open the safe as well. The owner had injuries to his neck and head.

On Thursday, RK Jewellers was targeted. Well-known Punjabi journalist Gurpreet (Lucky) Sahota posted a video on Twitter showing bullet holes in a lower window of the shop with a Surrey RCMP vehicle parked at the side.

Surrey RCMP responded hours later by stating in a press release that they are investigating shots fired overnight that targeted a Newton business.

On November 23 at 2:07 a.m., Surrey RCMP received a report that a business located in the 8100-block of 128 Street had been shot at. Police attended the scene and located evidence consistent with a shooting. The business was closed at the time of the incident and no injuries were reported.
