Police closed parts of Ash Street to traffic on Wednesday morning after an overnight home invasion sent two people to hospital.
At about 11 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 3, New Westminster police officers responded to a call in the 300-block of Ash Street.
When they arrived, officers found two victims.
One of the victims had serious head injuries and remains in critical condition at Royal Columbian Hospital. The second victim had minor injuries and was released from hospital earlier today, according to a media release.
Police believe six men - whose identities are still unknown at this time - forced their way into the residence and assaulted the victims.
New Westminster police are searching for six men. Police describe the men as Indo-Canadian and said they were seen fleeing the scene in vehicles after the attack.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the New Westminster Police at 604-525-2435 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
