VANCOUVER – The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team has now taken over a murder case in Surrey.
A man was found dead in a Whalley-area home around 8:30 p.m. on Sunday. He has been identified as Larry Mizen, a man who was reportedly very well-known in Surrey’s drug trade. There are reports he worked as an enforcer and was feared by many on the streets.
Mizen was a martial arts expert who reportedly threw punches without mercy. He was well known to police with a long history of convictions for assault, weapons offences, extortion and unlawful confinement.
Mizen was found dead when firefighters were responding to a call of medical distress at his home near 136 Street and 110 Avenue on Oct. 19.
A number of people are now being investigated but no arrests have been made. It’s still unclear what may have happened in the incident.
IHIT is asking anyone with information to contact their tipline at 1-877-551-4448 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
This is Surrey’s 13th murder case of the year.
