IHIT said Bal was known to police and that his murder was not a random act.
As RCMP continued to investigate, 96th Avenue between 128th and 130th Street was shut down overnight.
If you saw anyone fleeing the area during the approximate time of the assault, you’re asked to call Surrey RCMP or Crimestoppers.
