Man dies hours after shooting in Surrey home

  • Man dies hours after shooting in Surrey home

SURREY, B.C. - One man has died the day after a late night shooting in south Surrey, B.C.

RCMP in the city southeast of Vancouver say officers responded to reports of shots being fired outside a home along 19th Avenue off 168 Street around 11 p.m. Saturday.

Officers found the 37-year-old man with serious injuries, and a statement from police around 12:45 p.m. Sunday says the man has died.

IHIT has identified the victim as Troy Michael Regnier, in hopes of furthering their investigation.

Surrey RCMP arrested three suspects at the scene, who were believed to have been known to the victim, though at this time no charges have been laid.

The Mounties say the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team has been called.

They say the investigation is in its early stages, but initial indications are that the shooting "stemmed from an altercation between parties known to each other."

“We’re urging anyone who knew Mr. Regnier to come forward and speak with police,” says Sergeant Timothy Pierotti of IHIT. “Investigators continue to work to determine the motive. This is believed to be an isolated incident and does not appear to be related to the Lower Mainland gang conflict.”

The RCMP are asking anyone who may have information or video footage from the area around the time of the shooting to contact them.
