RCMP Corporal Elenore Sturko, speaking on Wednesday for the RCMP in Surrey, said there have been fights in the past involving multiple people in different parts of the city or different communities in the Lower Mainland.“Having videos, which have brought a lot of attention to the issue and concern by the public and police, is certainly something new,” Cpl. Sturko said.
Cpl. Sturko said this is not a gang conflict, but rather a conflict of personalities among a group of youths and young adults in their late teens and early twenties. No serious injuries have been reported, but the police say there have been incidents of harassment, public intoxication and fights.Surrey Mayor Doug McCallum has urged the Mounties to do something.
Cpl. Sturko said the reference to 50 people refers to identifying people and looking to see what involvement that may have had in violent conflict.She declined to say where the three people deported have been sent, saying that was a question for the Canada Border Services Agency.
