Man sought in Elgin Corners break-in

Surrey RCMP are looking for a male in a white hoodie in connection with a break-in at Elgin Corners Friday.

Police were alerted to the crime at 5:30 a.m. May 6, after security video captured an individual removing the glass of one business’s front door to gain access to a neighbouring retail unit.

According to police, the suspect attempted to cut through the business’s drywall to get into a fashion store.

When officers arrived, a male wearing a white hoodie and gloves fled the scene in a black Acura.

The vehicle was last seen eastbound on 32 Avenue at 144 Street, after it swerved to avoid a police vehicle that was westbound on 32 Avenue.

Elgin Corners is located at the corner of 32 Avenue and 140 Street.

Nothing was taken in the break-in.

Investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 604-599-0502.
