Vancouver rundown for Wednesday, July 3rd, 2024. There is no word on possible charges following an ugly physical confrontation on a Burda B golf course over the weekend.

00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:20,160
RCMP had to be called after a fight broke out between two groups of golfers at Riverway on Saturday, apparently over Golf Course etiquette.

3
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,840
Paramedics were called to the scene, but no one had to be taken to the hospital.

00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:39,440
Other news, you might now be able to spot Surrey Police Service cars on the road. The SPS has now deployed 10 of its own vehicles in this latest step in the slow and awkward transition from the RCMP to a city force.

5
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:48,400
The SPS police chief calls it a big morale boost. There is still no comment on how many frontline officers have been hired by the new force.

00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:59,120
Grouse Mountain, yeah, Grouse. It's being blasted by angry tourists who claim there is a lack of communication after Sunday's breakdown of the Skyride tram.

7
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:11,400
That breakdown left some visitors stuck in the mountain for close to five hours. The resort blames a fault in the operating system. The tram was still not in full operation on Tuesday.

00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:28,440
One of the last great hosts of CBC Vancouver's early edition has passed away. Radio personality Rick Clough, who had a career spanning more than 40 years in the CBC, many of them covering sports, passed away following a short battle with cancer.

9
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:37,120
He retired in 2017 at a time when his show topped the Vancouver market. Clough was 74.

10
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:46,640
A few clouds will remain in the forecast for Wednesday. It will be sunny and warm starting on Thursday with highs over 30 by the weekend.

00:01:46,640 --> 00:02:07,640
