Shots fired at Sidhu Travel Ltd. in Surrey

Police are investigating after shots were fired at the Sidhu Travel Ltd office in York Centre, Surrey, early Tuesday morning.

The Connect FM team visited the scene shortly after noon and observed the entrance door shattered, with police markers placed near the storefront.

At the scene, the glass of the entrance door to the Sidhu Travel office was seen shattered. Surrey Police confirmed that they had received information about an attempted break-in or mischief at the business at approximately 9.30 this morning.

Police arrived at the scene and investigated, finding that shots had been fired at the door. Some markers were also seen placed very close to the business.

Officers confirmed that no one was injured in the incident.

The Surrey Police Service Frontline Investigative Support (FLIS) Team is investigating the incident. According to police, the investigation into the incident is still in its early stages but the matter is suspected to be related to extortion.

Connect FM spoke to some businesses in the area after the incident. One of them said, "they were concerned about the safety of their employees as many of them work late into the night and it is difficult to convince them that the workplace is safe."

We asked another business owner if he felt afraid in such an environment, and he said, "he was not afraid, but worried that next time the perpetrators could take someone's life."
