A 42-year old man has been charged in relation to an August 24 murder in Surrey.
Background:
On August 27, 2023, at 11:47 a.m., Surrey RCMP members attended a suspicious death in the 19100-block 68 Avenue. Members attended and located a 56-year old man, later identified as Robb MEMORY of Surrey, deceased suffering from injuries consistent with homicide. A 42-year old suspect was identified on scene and taken into custody.
