File: 26-53556 (SP)

Surrey Police Service (SPS) has notified the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) of an incident in Surrey, where a suspect stabbed two people and one of the victims died from their injuries. SPS members confronted the suspect who was then injured in an officer-involved shooting. The suspect has now been pronounced deceased at hospital. The Independent Investigations Office of British Columbia (IIO BC) has been engaged to review police actions.

At approximately 1:00 pm on May 29, 2026, SPS Frontline members attended a building in the 13300 block Old Yale Road for a report of an assault. Police arrived on scene and located two victims suffering from stab wounds. The male suspect was no longer on scene. 

SPS members and BC Emergency Health Services (BCEHS) administered emergency medical interventions to both victims. Regrettably, one was declared deceased at scene. The other was transported to hospital where they remain in hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. IHIT will be assuming conduct of this investigation.

A male suspect was located a short distance away. There was a confrontation with police that resulted in officers firing their service-issued duty pistols. The suspect was seriously injured and transported to hospital. The suspect has since been pronounced deceased.

The police actions are now under investigation by the IIO BC, therefore no further information will be released or confirmed by police. Please contact IIO BC with any inquiries. For more information about IIO BC and media updates, you can visit its website at www.iiobc.ca
