IHIT investigating deadly stabbing in Mission

Darpan News Desk IHIT, 23 Aug, 2022 10:08 AM

On Monday around 3:40pm, Mission RCMP responded to a report of a man suffering from life threatening injuries resulting from a stabbing in the 7200 block of Park Street, Mission. Sadly, the victim died as a result of his injuries.

At this time, investigators believe this to be an isolated incident with no connection to the Lower Mainland Gang Conflict.

The victim has been identified, though his name is not being released at this time, to allow time for proper notification of the family.

IHIT has now taken over the investigation.

“We are still in the early stages of the investigation,” says Sergeant Timothy Pierotti of IHIT. “Investigators are working to canvass the area for witnesses and video.”

IHIT is asking anyone who has any information regarding the incident, to contact them.
