File #25-10516 (SU)

One suspect has been arrested and two people have been treated for minor injuries related to an overnight break and enter and assaults in South Surrey.

On February 26, 2025, at approximately 1:30 am, RCMP Surrey Provincial Operations Support Unit (SPOSU) members attended the area of King George Boulevard and 160^th Street in response to a call for a male suspect breaking into several homes and assaulting people. SPOSU members arrived on scene, located a suspect and arrested him. BCEHS attended and treated two people on scene for minor injuries.

The matter is still under investigation, but at this time, this appears to be a random incident and the suspect is unknown to the victims. The man is currently in custody and a Report to Crown Counsel will be forwarded for charge assessment.
