Vancouver rundown for Monday November 25 2024.
Some Chinese nationals blame the strike at Canada Post
for a situation that's left them stuck in Vancouver waiting for critical documents.
Stella Ching, a Chinese national who's been working in the US,
tells CBC News her passport and work visa were approved last week but are now caught up in the mail.
She says she traveled to Vancouver earlier this month to renew her documents.
She is one of several in the same situation who say they are losing hundreds of dollars each and every day because of the delay.
Other news, a man has been charged with second degree murder and aggravated assault
in the death of a young woman in Vancouver's Joyce Collingwood neighborhood on Friday night.
When police arrived at the home at around midnight,
they discovered 26 year old Roshni Gurung dead.
A 27 year old man was rushed to hospital with serious injuries.
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 Middles in a targeted attack early Sunday morning.
Almost a dozen shots were heard by neighbors in the area near 122nd Avenue and 188th Street.
So far, the 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 and then a mix of sun and cloud for both Tuesday and Wednesday.
