Victim of fatal stabbing in Abbotsford identified

The victim of a fatal stabbing in Abbotsford has been identified as a 30-year-old man who was known to police.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says it believes the stabbing of Cody Corbett yesterday in Inspiration Park was targeted and not random.

But it says there is no known connection with the Lower Mainland gang conflict.

Sergeant David Lee says Corbett lived a transient lifestyle but had contact with people in the community and anyone who knew of his activities is being asked to call I-HIT.
