Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 18 Oct, 2024 10:11 AM

Mounties in Surrey say three people have been arrested in the stabbing of a woman in the Whalley neighbourhood earlier this month.

They say the assault happened around 12:30 a-m on October 6th, and the R-C-M-P released photos and videos of the suspects 10 days later.

They say all three suspects turned themselves in to police, with two arrested for assault and the third arrested for assault with a weapon, aggravated assault and possession of a weapon for dangerous purpose.

They say the suspects are youth and have been released on conditions, but the investigation is ongoing so charges have not yet been recommended to the prosecution service.
