The trial for Adam Mann, accused of second-degree murder, continued with testimony from first responders. Police officers arrived at a Surrey residence on June 16, 2024, after a 911 call reported a home invasion and stabbing. Const. Sophia Banga testified to finding Tori Dunn with a deep abdominal wound and attempting to staunch the bleeding with gauze and medical supplies.
Despite efforts to control the bleeding and administer CPR, Dunn's condition did not improve. She was transported by ambulance to Royal Columbian Hospital, where she was pronounced deceased later that evening. Separately, Sgt. Jon Van Nieuwland described the initial scene management, including securing the residence. Officers located an individual matching suspect descriptors a few blocks away and detained him for attempted murder before learning of Dunn's death.
