Surrey RCMP call the stabbings 'disturbing.'
After three violent incidents on Metro Vancouver's transit system — including the death of a teenage boy — police are increasing patrols to keep the public safe.
The latest attack occurred in Surrey near the King George SkyTrain Station, just before 9:30 p.m. on Tuesday night. Police say a 17-year-old boy got into an altercation and was stabbed by a person on a bus. The teen later died in hospital. There was another stabbing on the morning of April 1, when a man’s throat was slashed while riding a transit bus in Surrey. Transit Police and Surrey RCMP quickly located the suspect, who was arrested for attempted murder. Police say it was a disturbing and unprovoked assault.
"Several of these incidents are still in the very early stages of an investigation, but there are no common causes that have been identified at this time,” she told Glacier Media.“And now have resulted in the tragic loss of a 17-year-old,” she said.“The circumstances surrounding the events differ greatly, we recognize that these violent acts can generate fear in the community,” she said.
Surrey RCMP will be “upping patrols through a joint project alongside Transit Police" given the recent violent incidents.
