SURREY, B.C. – Mounties summoned to what was believed to be an early morning fight found the body of a man in the elevator of a Surrey, B.C., apartment building.

Police say BC Ambulance Service personnel attempted to help the man, but his injuries were too serious.

Several people were arrested Saturday morning and the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team has been brought in to investigate the murder.

The team’s Cpl. Dale Carr says the 46-year-old man was stabbed to death.

Police are working on getting search warrants for a couple of the apartments inside the complex.

Carr says it’s too early to say if the death has links to gangs, drugs or organized crime.

The man’s name is being held until his family can be notified.
