Staff Sgt. Tyner Gillies said in a statement that police received a report about a shooting in the temple’s parking lot in the 7000 block of 120th St. in Surrey around 8:27 p.m. on Sunday night.
When police arrived, they found a man inside a vehicle with apparent gun shot wounds. Gillies said police provided medical assistance until paramedics arrived, but the victim died at the scene. IHIT has been called in to investigate along with Surrey RCMP. Gillies said the investigation is early and there is no known motive, and police are working to get a description of the suspect from several witnesses.
Gillies also said they are not in a position to name the victim, though RCMP is aware of social media posts that speculate as to his identity. Anyone with information or dash cam footage from the area around the time of the shooting is asked to contact IHIT at 1-877-551-IHIT or by email at ihitinfo@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.
