Darpan News Desk Langley RCMP, 10 Feb, 2022 01:03 PM

On Thursday, February 10th just before 1:30 a.m. Langley RCMP was called to the 1800 block of 224 Street after a report of man down was received. Upon police attendance, an adult victim was located and found to be deceased.

The area surrounding the scene will be cordoned off for a significant amount of time. 224 Street is currently closed between 16th and 24th Avenues. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) has been called and will be working in partnership with Langley RCMP.

Police are currently in the evidence gathering phase, no further information will be provided at this time. Further details and media availability will be handled by the IHIT Media Relations Officer.

IHIT is seeking dashcam footage from anyone who was on 224th Street between 16th and 40th Avenues between 11:00 p.m. on February 9th and 1:30 a.m. on February 10th.
