SURREY, B.C. — Police have announced the arrests of four suspects just hours after a man was shot dead in Surrey, B.C.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says quick co-ordination between Surrey RCMP, Air 1 and the Lower Mainland’s emergency response team led to the arrests.

Police were called Friday morning to a residential area in south Surrey where they found a 29-year-old man dead.

They say in a news release that a short time later, a report came in of a vehicle fire not far from the scene and the officers’ quick co-ordination led to the arrests.

Police say the initial evidence suggests the shooting was targeted.
