Three Surrey cases are related, but not clear yet if they involve extortion: police

VICTORIA — Police in Surrey, B.C., say shots fired at a residence and two vehicle fires Sunday morning are connected, but it is not clear whether they involve extortion.

A statement from the Surrey Police Service says officers responded to a vehicle fire at around 8:21 a.m., and only a few minutes later they got reports of possible shots fired outside a home.

After another 30 minutes, they were called to another vehicle fire.

The statement says none of the incidents led to injuries, but all appear connected at this early stage of the investigation.

Police say investigators will connect with police partners to see if the files connect with other files, adding that no “extortion-related links have been made at this time.”
