The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team was called to Langley, B.C., Thursday morning after a man died.
RCMP officers were first called around 1:30 a.m. to the 1800 block of 224 Street after receiving a report of a man down.
When police arrived, they found a deceased adult man.
Based on the investigative theory in this initial phase, this does not appear to be a random act, Langley RCMP said.
Police are currently gathering evidence but said 224 Street had been closed between 16th and 24th avenues.
IHIT is looking for dashcam footage from anyone who was on 224th Street between 16th and 40th avenues between 11 p.m. on Feb. 9 and 1:30 a.m. on Feb. 10.
Anyone with information can call the IHIT Information Line at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or contact them by email.
Meanwhile, a man has died following a shooting in Surrey’s Fraser Heights neighbourhood Tuesday night.
