Woman left outside B.C. hospital who later died was Chinese citizen: police

The severely wounded woman who was left outside Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock, B.C., last week and later died of her injuries was a Chinese citizen who’d only recently come to Canada.

Bo Fan, 41, was dropped off at the hospital in the early morning hours of June 17, police said in an update Wednesday, and was rushed inside for treatment but did not survive.

Fan had only been in Canada since February 2019, police said, and had been living in the Grandview Heights area of south Surrey. Little else is known about her.
