Multiple residents told Global News at the time they saw a man with what appeared to be a stab wound being taken away by ambulance and a younger man taken away in handcuffs but officials have not confirmed those details.

Investigators said at the time that they did not believe the incident was linked to the Lower Mainland gang conflict and believed it was a targeted event with no continued risk to public safety.
