Homicide investigators will remain at a house in Surrey’s Newton neighbourhood overnight and into Friday.
Officers are trying to figure out how a man came to be shot dead in the basement suite of a house on 70th Avenue at 124th Street.
Corporal Adam McIntosh with I-HIT says the investigation is in its early stages so far.
When asked if the mans death is related to gang activities, “It is to early to tell any information because we are so early in the investigation and that is our goal, to determine the motive behind what happened.”
Wednesday, high profile gangster Ranjit Cheema was gunned down outside his parents home in east Vancouver.
Police have warned that anytime there is a hit like this, there is a chance of retaliation.
