Warrant issued for suspect after brutal stabbing at Surrey hotel
After an early-morning stabbing at a hotel in Surrey left one victim with serious injuries this past summer, police have now issued an arrest warrant for the person they believe responsible.
On Tuesday, police issued the warrant for 29-year-old Malcolm Drydgen, who they said has now been charged with Aggravated Assault. Investigators believe he is currently “somewhere in the Lower Mainland, or possibly Alberta.”
