00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Vancouver rundown for Monday, March 3, 2025. Breaking news, there has been a 4.6 earthquake

2
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:14,240
just east of Orcas Island and south of Bellingham, Washington. It happened at 5.02 Monday morning and

3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:19,440
has been felt by some people in northwestern Washington state, parts of the Gulf Islands,

4
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:25,680
Vancouver Island, and of course the BC Lower Mainland. There is still no word on the whereabouts

5
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:32,000
of a woman who may have been inside that home that exploded in flames in Langley late Friday morning.

6
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:38,400
Two others were critically injured. Six neighboring homes were damaged too severely. An excavator was

7
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:43,760
used late Friday to pull apart the debris. Investigators continued to go through the rubble

8
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:50,080
as they pieced together the circumstances, trying to figure out why there was a large explosion

9
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:58,560
just before the massive fire on 196th Street at 73 A Avenue. Other news, six people and a cat have

10
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:04,240
been displaced following a house fire in Surrey's Fleetwood neighborhood Sunday morning. No one is

11
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:10,800
injured but the cat had to be rescued by firefighters. The house appears to be beyond repair. There's no

12
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:17,120
word on the cause of the fire. One man has been badly hurt after being attacked by someone with

13
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:24,000
a sharp weapon in Surrey's Holland Park. Police do not think the attack on Saturday evening was

14
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:31,920
random. No arrests have been made. Members of BC's Ukrainian community rallied at Canada Place and

15
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:37,200
several other spots across the Lower Mainland over the weekend. Many expressed outrage with

16
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:43,280
Donald Trump and the White House after Friday's heated meeting in Washington DC with President

17
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:50,640
Volodymyr Zelensky. The U.S. and Ukraine failed to sign any deal over mineral rights at that meeting.

18
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:58,400
Fog and a slight chance of showers on Monday, a mix of sun and cloud by the afternoon, a chance of

19
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:06,160
showers for Tuesday, cloudy periods for Wednesday. For all the details on these local Vancouver area
