Authorities are investigating another shooting in Surrey, B.C., that damaged a local business – and whether it's related to any previous incidents in the city.
The Surrey Police Service said the latest shooting happened at a business complex in the 8100 block of 128 Street.
It's unclear when the shots were fired, but staff discovered exterior damage to one of the businesses around 1 a.m. Monday.
'There were no reports of any injuries related to the property or surrounding properties,' the SPS said Monday, in a news release. 'It is unknown if the business damaged was the intended target.'
CTV News has asked police for more information, including which business was damaged.
So far, there's no indication the shooting is related to a financial extortion campaign that has targeted Surrey businesses since 2023. (LINK)
In some cases, business owners have received chilling phone calls demanding they pay millions of dollars – then been threatened with shootings or arsons.
Earlier this month, the RCMP announced two suspects were arrested in connection with an ongoing investigation into those incidents.
Police said their investigation into the latest shooting on 128 Street is still in the early stages, and that 'connections to other incidents and potential motives are being explored.'
The Surrey Police Service asked anyone with information to contact the department's non-emergency line at 604-599-0502.

Speeding teen fined $1,800 after crashing stepmom's BMW: B.C. Highway Patrol

The B.C. Highway Patrol provided this photo of a BMV that crashed into a dump truck on July 21, 2025. A 16-year-old driving his stepmother's BMW sped past police and ran a stop sign before crashing into a dump truck last week, according to the B.C. Highway Patrol. The driver, who had a learner's licence, was clocked going 180 km/h in a 100 km/h zone on Highway 1 in the Fraser Valley, Mounties said in a statement. 'To the officer, the speeding grey BMW made other highway traffic look like it was standing still,' said Cpl. Corporal Michael McLaughlin, B.C. Highway Patrol spokesperson. 'The BMW was not pursued, but a few minutes later, a driver called police and said a grey BMW had gone through a stop sign and collided with his parked dump truck.' Police fined the driver more than $1,800 for violations of the Motor Vehicle Act including excessive speeding, driving without due care and attention, and failing to obey a stop sign. Three of the fines were for violating the conditions of his learner's licence by failing to display an 'L' sign, carrying too many passengers and driving without a supervisor. The teen has also been banned from driving for a year. 'The passengers were not impressed. Hopefully the driver will learn that peer pressure works both ways,' McLaughlin said. 'He will also have to explain why his stepmother's car is sitting in an impound lot with thousands of dollars in damage.'
