The security guard told police he was approached by a light-skinned black male, who asked to use his flashlight to help him find his keys. Once the guard handed over his flashlight, the suspect then used it to assault and rob the guard.

The guard had his wallet and cell phone stolen and was taken to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

Surrey RCMP’s Robbery Unit is investigating the incident.

If anyone has information about the suspect or the incident, please call Surrey RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
