SURREY, B.C. — RCMP say a suspect is in custody following an alleged hit and run that killed a motorcyclist in Surrey, B.C.

Police say the collision happened around 9:30 p.m. and the driver of the pickup — described as an older model white truck — fled the scene.

The suspected driver walked into the Surrey detachment and turned himself in at 9 a.m. Saturday.

Investigators are asking anyone who witnessed the collision, or has dash-cam video of the incident, to contact them.
