(Rafferty Baker/CBC) Mounties in Coquitlam, B.C., say they are dealing with a "major police incident" that involves multiple crime scenes. No further details have been released about the incident, but DriveBC is telling motorists to expect major delays on Highway 1 between Exit 44 and King Edward Street. Randy Kang told CBC he was leaving work at a car dealership on Lougheed Highway when he saw police lights and heard people yelling before seeing officers running after someone. He says he saw a number of shots being fired and captured the incident on video. "Pretty intense — definitely caught me by surprise," Kang said. He added that as he was driving home later, he witnessed numerous police cars rushing toward Surrey. Braid SkyTrain Station in New Westminster was closed for more than an hour late Tuesday afternoon as a result of the incident, but Transit Police reported it was re-opening shortly before 6 p.m. PT. More to come.
