The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team is investigating the death of a Surrey man after a body was found in Whalley.

The Surrey RCMP Police Mental Health Outreach Team was doing foot patrols in the 11300-block of Bridgeview Drive Thursday (June 4) around 8 p.m., when “they came across a deceased male,” according to a release from Surrey RCMP Friday.

IHIT has now taken over the case.

Police are “currently in the evidence gathering phase,” and no other information will be released at this time, Surrey RCMP said.
