Police have arrested a 28-year-old man following a string of late-night shootings in Surrey and Delta that left several vehicles and a residence damaged. No injuries were reported.

Surrey RCMP say shots were fired at three locations Saturday night – the 6900-block of 127A Street, the 12900-block of 73A Avenue, and the 6600-block of 132 Street. Less than an hour later, Delta Police responded to a similar report near the 7900-block of 114A Street, which investigators believe is connected.

Corporal Vanessa Munn, Surrey RCMP spokesperson, said the incidents appear linked. “All four incidents are believed to be connected to one suspect who is now in custody. While shots were fired at vehicles and a home, thankfully nobody was injured,” she said.

Investigators say the shootings are not believed to be connected to the Lower Mainland gang conflict. Surrey city councillors have previously debated community safety funding and will revisit the issue in upcoming budget discussions as residents demand reassurance after repeated violent incidents.

The shootings also rattled people living nearby. Rahul Mehta, who has lived in the Newton area for a decade, said the violence disrupts everyday life. “I was getting ready for work when the sirens came through. It’s frustrating because these incidents give the neighbourhood a bad reputation, even though most of us just want to live quietly. People are tired of seeing crime define our community.”

NDP to table motion seeking federal ban on “surveillance pricing”

The federal NDP is expected to introduce a motion Wednesday calling on the government to ban a practice it describes as “surveillance pricing,” arguing it unfairly targets consumers using personal data. According to the text of the motion, the practice involves companies using information such as a customer’s search history or the amount of time spent on a webpage to adjust prices, both online and in physical stores. The party says this can result in different consumers being charged different prices for the same product. NDP Leader Avi Lewis said the approach could disproportionately af
