RCMP have said the stabbing happened just before 9:30 p.m. Tuesday on a bus in Surrey, not far from the King George SkyTrain station.The Mounties have said the stabbing appears to have been a targeted, isolated incident, with no connection to gang conflict in the Lower Mainland.He regularly took the bus to Surrey, where his mother would pick him up to drive home to Abbotsford, she said, adding that the family had moved from Surrey last year, partly because of concerns about crime.
The first victim, whose throat was slashed on April 1, is now recovering at home. A man has been charged with terrorism offences in that case, and police have said the attacks were unrelated.“We need to keep each other safe. Maybe we need more mental health support, more community outreach programs for teens and youth.”
