00:00:00.739 --> 00:00:04.679
Vancouver rundown for Wednesday, July 16, 2025.

00:00:05.580 --> 00:00:09.380
A security incident at YVR has been prompted

00:00:09.380 --> 00:00:12.039
by the theft of a single -engine plane on Vancouver

00:00:12.039 --> 00:00:15.220
Island. Some flights had to be grounded and airspace

00:00:15.220 --> 00:00:17.359
had to be shut down for a short time Tuesday

00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:22.120
afternoon after a Cessna 172S Skyhawk was taken

00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:25.140
from the Victoria Flying Club and flown to Vancouver.

00:00:26.089 --> 00:00:28.750
The suspect and lone occupant circled YVR for

00:00:28.750 --> 00:00:31.570
close to 20 minutes before landing that plane.

00:00:31.870 --> 00:00:34.850
He was promptly arrested. There's no word on

00:00:34.850 --> 00:00:38.590
the motive. Other news. Surrey police suspect

00:00:38.590 --> 00:00:41.329
road rage as the motive in a shooting involving

00:00:41.329 --> 00:00:45.390
two cars in Newton early Tuesday morning. They

00:00:45.390 --> 00:00:47.850
say three people are injured after shots were

00:00:47.850 --> 00:00:51.820
fired at their car. On 80th Avenue near 140th

00:00:51.820 --> 00:00:54.740
Street, police are looking for three South Asian

00:00:54.740 --> 00:00:58.340
men who were in a white Tesla with Ontario plates.

00:00:59.020 --> 00:01:02.179
The city of Richmond has slashed next year's

00:01:02.179 --> 00:01:05.280
funding for the Olympic Oval by a million dollars.

00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:08.519
The arm's length corporation that runs the Oval

00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:12.000
will get $2 .5 million. After recent turmoil

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:15.379
involving outrage over expenses, and the departure

00:01:15.379 --> 00:01:19.519
of the CEO and board. City Council has also voted

00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:23.299
to review how the Oval is operated. Something

00:01:23.299 --> 00:01:27.120
stinks in Vancouver. Numerous people have taken

00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:30.319
to social media and some websites to complain

00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.519
about an unknown stench that seems strongest

00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.980
in Mount Pleasant and downtown. There's no word

00:01:36.980 --> 00:01:39.459
on whether it's related to garbage, sewage, or

00:01:39.459 --> 00:01:42.590
even slaughterhouses. The City of Vancouver is

00:01:42.590 --> 00:01:46.069
encouraging those who smell stinky air to call

00:01:46.069 --> 00:01:50.310
3 -1 -1. The forecast Wednesday will be sunny

00:01:50.310 --> 00:01:54.030
and warm, inland highs about 31 degrees, a tad

00:01:54.030 --> 00:01:57.790
cooler for Thursday and Friday. For all the details
