Summary

Some Chinese nationals blame the strike at Canada Post for a situation that’s left them stuck in Vancouver, waiting for critical documents. Stella Xing, a Chinese national who has been working in the U.S., tells CBC News her passport and work visa were approved last week but are now caught up in the mail. She says she travelled to Vancouver earlier this month to renew her documents. She’s one of several in the same situation who say they are losing hundreds of dollars each day because of the delay.

A man’s been charged with second degree murder and aggravated assault in the death of a young woman in Vancouver’s Joyce-Collingwood neighbourhood Friday night.

Police are not saying if the attacker knew his victims.

Four people have been arrested after a man was stabbed in an Olympic Village liquor store Saturday evening. It’s believed the incident happened during an attempted shoplifting. Police say a 63-year-old witness was stabbed by the shoplifter - leaving him with serious injuries. The 21-year-old was arrested a short-time later but released from custody. It’s believed he was helped-out by three accomplices…all in their teens.

Investigators are trying to figure out why someone shot up a house in Pitt Meadows in a targeted attack early Sunday morning. Almost a dozen shots were heard by neighbours in the area of 122 Ave and 188 Street. So far, RCMP have not released any information about the shooting so residents don’t know if they’re in danger or not.

Rain ending by Monday afternoon. A mix of sun and cloud for both Tuesday and Wednesday. Here are the latest conditions from our private weather station in Surrey.
