The Surrey RCMP General Investigation Unit (GIU) is investigating a suspicious fire that occurred last night in Whalley.

On March 15, 2021 at approximately 11:30 p.m., Surrey RCMP was called to assist the Surrey Fire Service with a vehicle fire, in the 10700-block of 133 Street.

Upon arrival, officers found a vehicle in the carport of a residence fully engulfed in flames. The vehicle sustained significant damage while the carport was moderately damaged – no one was injured as a result of the fire.

The investigation was assumed by the Surrey RCMP GIU who located evidence suggesting the fire was suspicious. Officers are now working on identifying a suspect.
