Homicide investigators say a man has been arrested following a deadly stabbing near the Metrotown Mall in Burnaby yesterday morning.
A statement from the RCMP's Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says the man was picked up shortly after the attack, which was not random as the suspect and victim are known to each other.
Police say there were also reports of several other ``serious offences'' in the same area at the time of the stabbing, but no one else was hurt and officers continue to investigate how all the events might be connected.
The suspect in his 30s remains in custody and detectives want to speak to anyone who may have seen anything suspicious or have video footage taken around the mall between 11 am and 1 pm yesterday.
