  • Charges laid against 3 in robbery

An investigation led by the Surrey RCMP Robbery Unit has resulted in charges being laid against three robbery suspects.

On December 23rd of last year  Surrey RCMP received a report of a personal robbery on a post-secondary school campus located in the 13400-block of 102 Avenue. Prior to police arrival it was reported that three suspects had fled with the victim’s phone and backpack.

The victim of the robbery sustained injuries and was transported to hospital.

The Surrey RCMP Robbery Unit took conduct of the investigation and identified three suspects. A complete investigation was conducted and a report was submitted to BC Prosecution Service for charge assessment.

On June 14th, charges were laid against the three alleged suspects and warrants were issued for their arrests.

  • 37-year-old Bruce James Madill was charged with robbery and assault causing bodily harm;
  • 24-year-old Kaitlyn Marie Sedore was charged with robbery and assault causing bodily harm; and
  • 44-year-old Charles Adam Platko was charged with robbery and assault.

All parties have since been arrested and brought before the courts. Kaitlyn Sedore and Charles Platko have been released on conditions and Bruce Madill remains in custody awaiting his next court appearance.
