On 31 July 2016 at 8:21 pm Surrey RCMP was called to a residence in the 13900 block of Antrim Road, Surrey after receiving a report of an injured male. BC Ambulance service also attended. The male has since been pronounced deceased as a result of a homicide.

Police later identified the victim as 27-year-old Sean Christopher Kelly.

The suspected homicide comes after a series of shootings in Surrey B.C.
