City of Surrey and RCMP

: On April 8, police announced a crackdown targeting groups of "surprisingly" young men aged 14-21, according to CBC. Gary is one of them. There have been more than 33 gunfire incidents, including one fatality, in the city of Surrey this year — at least eight directly tied to a dispute between two groups of low-level dealers, said the RCMP. I think he could use a gun ... it really heart-breaking." - Bobby, older brother of a 15-year-old dealer. The CBC can't reveal his real name because Gary is a minor and not charged with any crime. The 15-year-old started going off the rails in the past year, according to his brother. "The first major sign of trouble was when we found a cell phone and drugs in his room," said Bobby. His older brother Bobby agreed to provide a rare inside look at who is fuelling the on-going gun violence in Surrey. "I think he could use a gun," said Bobby. "It really heartbreaking." Surrey has seen 33 shootings since the beginning of 2016. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
