SURREY RCMP are asking for the public’s assistance with locating a man wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for robbery and other offences, including unlawful confinement.

On September 28, 2022, Jaden Kahnapace-Newton was released while awaiting trial in relation to 14 charges stemming from three robberies that occurred in October 2021.  He was released by a judge on strict conditions, which included electronic monitoring by an ankle bracelet.

On December 1, 2022, a Canada-wide warrant was issued for his arrest. It is alleged that Kahnapace-Newton tampered with or removed his electronic monitoring device and fled.  Despite efforts, police have been unsuccessful in locating and arresting him.

Kahnapace-Newton appears to be an indigenous man in his early 20s. He is 6’ 1.5”, 243 lbs., with black hair and brown eyes. He is known to frequent the Lower Mainland of B.C. and Calgary, Alberta.

Police are urging public to use caution if they see him and call police immediately.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-8477 or www.solvecrime.ca.
