  • Man arrested in relation to domestic assault investigation passes away: Surrey RCMP

On April 15, 2022, Surrey RCMP arrested one man without incident in relation to a domestic assault investigation and brought him to the Surrey RCMP Detachment cell block.

During regular checks of prisoners throughout the night, the man was responsive, but during a check in the afternoon of April 16, officers noticed that the man had become unresponsive.

First aid was immediately provided by officers and the on-shift nurse working in the cell block.

Emergency Health Services were called and paramedics continued to provide medical attention until the man was pronounced deceased.
