Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 20 Aug, 2024 11:43 AM

A 24-year-old man has been charged in the stabbing death of another man that happened in Surrey in July.

B-C's Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says police were called to the scene of a fight on King George Boulevard on July 23rd and found a man identified as Jason Richard Gill suffering from multiple stab wounds.

Gill died at the scene.

Police say prosecutors have now charged a 24-year-old suspect with second-degree murder, and investigators believe the attack was isolated and the two men knew each other prior to the stabbing.
