2 SURREY (NEWS1130) - Part of the parking garage at Central City Mall on 134th Street and 102nd Avenue in Surrey is behind yellow crime scene tape as police investigate a shooting death.
Shots were first heard around 1:30 a.m. For now, police will only say the victim is a young woman.
Police are focusing their investigation on a small section of the parkade's third level and have sealed off an area that includes a number of vehicles and one entrance to SFU's Surrey campus, where one man tells us many students hit the books all night.
"A lot of [students] park here and most often stay overnight. There are still students inside."
A source tells News1130 the incident may have started with a dispute between a boyfriend and girlfriend, but that has not been confirmed. There are also reports the victim is 19 years old and was shot in the head.
"It isn't clear at this point whether this homicide has anything to do with the SFU campus here, if there's any links to that, whether this female has any connection to the campus or is even at student," explains RCMP Sergeant Peter Thiessen.
He won't yet say if they have anyone in custody in connection with this case or if there are even any suspects; Mounties hope to have more details later today.
