Surrey RCMP is seeking information following an armed robbery that occurred at a Newton business Wednesday morning.

On Wednesday, at approximately 11:08 a.m. Surrey RCMP received the report of an armed robbery at a business located in the 8100-block of 128 Street. One person sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was transported to hospital.
