Mounties in B-C are recommending numerous charges against an Edmonton man after a drug seizure at a Canadian border crossing in Surrey.
The Canada Border Services Agency says the driver was arrested and officers seized roughly 65 kilograms of cocaine at the crossing last July after a detector dog raised the alarm during a commercial truck examination.
The truck was carrying a shipment of dried goods bound for Calgary.
The R-C-M-P say they were able to identify the victim within a week of releasing photos of a tattoo and the clothing the man was wearing. They say his name is not being shared out of respect for his family and their request for privacy.
A shooting in Surrey, B.C.'s Guildford neighbourhood has left one man dead. RCMP were called to the 108 Avenue and 148 Street area around 8 p.m. Tuesday night.
Under the plan, the city will immediately begin to address repairs to the cobblestone streets and other improvements on the street where the city's famed steam clock is located.
After money was exchanged in person, a sleight of hand reportedly switched the authentic brand name phone for a counterfeit version, before the suspect left with the money. Police say both incidents happened on April 27th.
Police in New Westminster are looking for witnesses of an assault they believe may have been a targeted attack. They say it happened near the intersection of Carnarvon Street and Alexander Street early yesterday.
