Surrey RCMP are advising the public that a 14-year-old boy has been missing since Monday evening.
The Surrey detachment states that it is continuing to search for 14-year-old Arnav Naphar who was last seen at approximately 5:45 pm on May 4. They add that he was last seen in Highland Park in Newton when he was with his family, but that he went off on his own on his bike to loop around the park and never returned.
The family informed RCMP that it is normal for Arnav to ride his bike alone but highly unusual for him not to return home.
