Surrey RCMP is investigating a targeted shooting that occurred early this morning in Newton.

On September 23, 2021, at approximately 5:00 am, Surrey RCMP responded to the report of two males shot at a residence in the 8800 block of 140B Street. A 23-year-old man and a 47-year-old man were transported to hospital with what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries.
