Surrey RCMP is investigating an arson at an apartment building in the Guildford area and requesting anyone with information contact police.

On February 8, 2022, at 3:06 a.m., Surrey Fire Service notified Surrey RCMP that they were responding to the report of a fire at an apartment building located the 10600-block of 150 Street. 

Upon attendance, Surrey Fire Service quickly extinguished a fire located in the hallway of the building. There was evidence of a second fire outside the building, which was extinguished prior to police/fire attendance.
