      BULLETS FIRED INTO SOUTH SURREY HOME AS HOUSE PARTY TURNS VIOLENT
       
      RCMP Mounties say someone opened fired on a home in the 1700-block of King George Boulevard around 3:30 a.m.
       
      Neighbours say they flew out of bed when they heard the gunshots, which sounded “like explosions.” 
       
      Just hours earlier a brawl broke out at the same house party. 
       
       
      Neighbours say a car was being driven erratically, smashing repeatedly into a gate.
       
      Several hours later, someone returned to the home, spraying it with bullets.
       
      Surrey RCMP say many residents were inside, and describe the incident as “isolated but targeted.”
       
      An investigation is ongoing, and no one has been arrested. 
       
      Anyone with further information who has not already spoken to police is asked to contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502
