Surrey RCMP say they have arrested two young people in the stabbing of a 16-year-old boy.

The stabbing happened in the Panorama-area of Surrey in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Surrey RCMP Staff Sgt. Dale Carr said police responded to multiple 911 calls at about 1 a.m. in the 5600 Block of 148 Street.

“Officers… attended to the location, and located a 16-year-old male that had received several wounds from an unknown edged weapon,” said Carr in a release.

“The victim had been having a verbal altercation with several other youths that had come to the residence. These youths fled from the residence prior to police arriving on the scene.”
