    Stabbing At Surrey’s Crown Palace Banquet Hall: 5 People Taken To Hospital, Elderly Woman Injured

    Darpan News Desk, 05 Nov, 2016 11:36 AM
      Five people were taken to hospital after a family function at a Crown Palace Banquet Hall in Surrey turned violent Friday night.
       
      The dispute began in the hall, but "spilled out into the parking lot," police said.
       
      Paramedics transported five people to hospital. One of the victims was an elderly woman who got caught in the fight and got knocked over. 
       
      She suffered a broken arm as a result of being knocked down. The other four victims suffered stab wounds from someone using a knife.
       
      The fight broke out in the parking lot of Crown Palace Banquet Hall on Nordel Way around midnight, Sgt. M.A. Hedderson said in a press release.
       
      "So far we know everybody there knows each other," said Staff Sgt. Murray Hedderson with Surrey RCMP. "This is a family argument that got a little... extraordinary."
       
      Police were questioning witnesses and are seeking possible video surveillance footage of the altercation.
       
      No one suffered any life-threatening injuries.
       
       
      Anyone who may have witnessed the altercation or observed persons fleeing from the location of the incident are asked to call the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, or to call Crime Stoppers.
