Break & Enter at a Surrey jewelry store

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 31 May, 2024 05:25 PM

Surrey R-C-M-P say a sophisticated break and enter at a jewelry store has led to a Canada-wide warrant for one suspect.

Mounties say the break-in on March 31st happened over several hours through a "sophisticated series of events using tools and other entry devices."

The Surrey Property Crime Target Team determined two suspects, including a 51-year-old man who has since been deported on an unrelated matter.

The second suspect is 27-years-old man who is not a resident of British Columbia and remains outstanding.
