SURREY RCMP are asking for the public’s assistance to locate the suspect in a stabbing which occurred on December 13, 2018, in the Newton area of Surrey.

The stabbing, which occurred outside of a business in the 13400-block 72nd Avenue, shortly after 5 p.m., resulted in serious injuries to a man in his 50s. The suspect fled the scene prior to police being called.

The Surrey RCMP General Investigation Unit advanced the investigation and on January 25, the BC Prosecution Service approved charges, including attempted murder, against 21-year-old Anhad Singh Virk, of Surrey.

An arrest warrant has been issued, and police are now seeking help from the public to locate Virk.
