IHIT has made an arrest in the homicide of Nicholas Ball from March 29, 2022 in Langley.
On March 29th, at 12:10 p.m., the Langley RCMP were called to a wooded area in the 7400-block of 208 Street in Langley, BC.
Langley RCMP front line officers attended and located a 29-year-old deceased man, later identified as Nicholas Ball, of Langley.
On Tuesday, August 23rd, 40-year old Jason Griffiths of Langley was arrested in connection to the murder of Nicholas Ball.
Just two days later, the same owner reported he had found what appeared to be a Molotov cocktail device inside his house, but the container had not ignited. Police say they reviewed video surveillance and arrested a suspect in his mid-40s who remains in custody.
A male victim was located and had suffered a gunshot wound. The victim’s 9-year-old son, who was in the back seat of the vehicle at the time of the shooting, thankfully escaped completely unharmed.
When the officers stopped to investigate, one of the men tried to walk away and stash a bag inside a second car that was parked nearby. Officers discovered a 9mm pistol, ammunition, and a variety of controlled substances in that man’s possession.
NACI also strongly recommends a second booster for people between 70 and 79 years of age. In general, the group says a second booster dose should be given 6 months after the patients got their first booster shots factoring in a recent COVID-19 infection.
The bill, designed to support Canada's independent media, is modelled on an Australian law making tech companies such as Google and Meta pay for news content on their platforms.
Health Minister Adrian Dix says the possibility of a second booster dose is on the agenda for today's COVID-19 briefing with provincial health officer Dr. Bonne Henry.
