File: 26-37221 (SP)

Surrey Police Service (SPS) is investigating an incident that occurred during the April 19, 2026, Khalsa Day celebrations where a young boy was allegedly assaulted while inside a carnival attraction. 

On Sunday, April 19, 2026, at approximately 5:00 pm, SPS Frontline officers responded to a report of an assault that occurred outside the Gurdwara in the 12800 block of 85 Avenue. It was determined that inside a haunted house amusement called “Kreepy Kastle,” which was set up in the parking lot for the Khalsa Day festivities, an 8-year-old boy had been assaulted by two adult males. The child escaped from the males and fled outside to inform his family. The child suffered injuries to his neck which required treatment at a hospital. 

SPS’s Major Crime Unit and Special Victims Team (SVT) has assumed conduct of the investigation. The owner/operator of the carnival is cooperating, and staff are not believed to be involved in the alleged assaults.

SPS detectives have searched the area for physical and digital evidence and canvassed for witnesses. Two suspects have been identified because of this work. These suspects are described as South Asian adult males wearing dark clothing. One of the males was wearing a turban and the other a very distinctive floral patterned brown shirt. The search for digital evidence has resulted in images of the potential suspects being captured (see attached photos).

SPS is appealing for additional witnesses and other potential victims to come forward. Furthermore, police are asking others who attended the area and have photos or video of the interior or exterior of the “Kreepy Kastle” between 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm on April 19, 2026, to contact police.

Anyone with information should contact SPS’s non-emergency line at 604-599-0502 and quote file number 26-37221 (SP) or contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
