CHILLIWACK (NEWS 1130) – The homicide team is investigating a stabbing that left two people dead and one injured in Chilliwack last night.

The Chilliwack RCMP responded to an altercation at Young Road and Yale Road just after 10:00 p.m. and found three people with stab wounds. Two people died, and police have deemed the incident a double homicide.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says it’s unclear if the altercation was targeted, and the scene has been closed off while investigators gather evidence.

“The investigation is in its infancy, and there is limited information to indicate whether this attack occurred between individuals known to each other or if it was random.” Cpl. Meghan Foster says. “Anyone with information about this incident is encouraged to contact police.”
