Homicide team deployed to Surrey, B.C., after fatal shooting
One man died and one was injured in an early morning shooting, marking Surrey's third homicide of the year
Homicide investigators have been deployed to Surrey, B.C., following a fatal shooting on Saturday morning.
It occurred at about 4:55 a.m. at a home on the 12500 block of 91 Avenue. Police said they later found two men in the residence suffering from gunshot wounds.
A news release from Surrey Police Service said one man was subsequently pronounced dead at the scene, while another victim was transported to a hospital.
Surrey Police said officers, paramedics and firefighters all responded to the scene and "rendered aid to the victims."
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) took over the case.
In a statement later in the day, investigators said they had determined that the victims and suspect knew each other and it appeared to have been a targeted homicide.
“The presence of gun violence in a residential neighbourhood continues to be of concern for communities and police," said IHIT Sgt. Freda Fong.
IHIT said the killing is not believed to be connected to the B.C. gang conflict or ongoing extortion cases.
Investigators are appealing for people with information and dashcam footage to contact them.
This marks Surrey's third homicide of 2026.
