A 33-year-old Aldergrove man has been charged with manufacturing firearms and drug possession
Police say he was arrested on Tuesday but has been released on court-imposed conditions until his next appearance.
Investigators from the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit - British Columbia say their investigation began in November 2020 when they received information about the alleged manufacturing of firearms.
They say officers arrested previously two men and a woman in May 2021 after carrying out search warrants at four homes in Aldergrove and Abbotsford.
The B.C. Wildfire Service said Sunday the fire at Boundary Lake was an estimated 5,900 hectares, compared to about 3,000 hectares earlier in the day. The fire at Red Creek hit 2,800 hectares, up from 1,550.
Surrey R-C-M-P say the shooting happened on May 2nd at 8 p-m in a parking lot on 108 Avenue, where officers found two victims who had been shot. One victim, 20-year-old Jayden Prasad, died of his injuries while the other victim recovered.
Burnaby R-C-M-P say the crash happened at 1:50 p-m near Imperial Street and Patterson Avenue, when an eastbound car veered onto the sidewalk and hit the 19-year-old victim. The victim remains in hospital in serious condition, and police have ruled out impaired driving as a factor.
Police say the incident happened at around 1:30 p-m, when a black S-U-V driving southbound near the 3600 block of 152 Street struck another southbound car, left the road, and went into the Nicomeki River.
Dozens of firefighters battled the two-alarm fire this morning at a house that was under construction. Fire officials say flames about 20-feet high were coming from the roof.
Richmond R-C-M-P are investigating after a 67-year-old woman was assaulted by two suspects. Police say her home was also ransacked in last month's attack.
