On May 5, 2023, at approximately 8:06 a.m., Surrey RCMP responded to the report of a shooting in a residential driveway located in the 8100-block of 144A Street. Police attended and located an adult male suffering from apparent gun shot wounds and provided medical assistance until Emergency Health Services arrived on scene. The man was transported to hospital with serious injuries.

At approximately 8:34 a.m., Surrey RCMP were notified of a vehicle fire at 125A Street and Colebrook Road. The vehicle located on fire is similar in description to the suspect vehicle seen fleeing the area of the shooting, however further investigation is required to link the two incidents.
