Woman charged after Surrey Sunday morning stabbing

The Surrey RCMP says a woman faces charges in relation to the alleged stabbing of another woman in Surrey early Sunday morning.

Mounties say officers were called around 2 a.m. for a report of a pedestrian being struck by a vehicle in the area of King George and 108th Street. When they arrived, they found a woman who was unconscious and covered in blood.

It was then they determined she hadn’t been involved in a motor vehicle accident but had been a victim of a stabbing.

On Sunday, police said a possible suspect had been found and taken into custody, and the victim had been taken to hospital.

In a release Tuesday, the RCMP says the suspect arrested was a 36-year-old woman, who has since been charged with aggravated assault and assault with a weapon.

Mounties say the suspect has been remanded in custody until her next court appearance.

They say the victim remains in hospital with life-threatening injuries.
