The suspect wanted for lighting a man on fire in a Surrey assault on Friday is still at large, Surrey RCMP report.
Surrey RCMP confirmed Saturday that a reported "serious assault" that took place at a business in the 10200 block of City Parkway in Whalley involved a suspect who "allegedly assaulted the victim by throwing an accelerant on his body and proceeded to light him on fire."
The victim suffered serious burns and was taken to hospital, where he is recovering, police said.
Police had previously not confirmed that the assault in question involved a person being set on fire, but a witness on the scene had reported details to a Black Press freelancer at the scene.
Witness Jessica Vesper said she was inside the business when the victim ran from the back of the store.
