  • Surrey lifeguard charged with sexual interference

Mounties in Surrey are advising the public after an investigation led to sex offence charges against a 24-year-old man. 

Police say the man was a lifeguard at the City of Surrey Recreation Centre and has been charged with sexual interference, invitation to sexual touching and luring a child. 

RCMP say they received a complaint in April and their special victims unit took over the case and arrested the man.

The man has been released from police custody under several conditions, including reporting to a bail supervisor, being banned from contacting the victim, and staying away from the alleged victim’s home and from the recreation centre. 

The accused is also banned from going any place where children under the age of 16 may be unless permission is granted by his bail supervisor. 

Police are asking anyone who has information regarding this incident to contact them.

British Columbia's provincial health officer says people living or working on poultry farms should "prioritize" getting influenza vaccinations as avian flu spreads among flocks this fall. Dr. Bonnie Henry says while avian flu does not transmit easily from birds to humans, infections "can happen and are very concerning" because of the potential for the virus to mix with human influenza and mutate into something much more contagious.
