WARNING: Videos contain coarse language

SURREY (NEWS 1130) – A Surrey vigilante group which tracks down and films suspected pedophiles claims it has captured an RCMP officer on video as he tried to meet up with what he thought was an underage girl for intercourse.

In a series of videos filmed live and posted to Facebook, a group called Surrey Creep Catchers is seen approaching a man who is talking with a woman outside the Boston Pizza at Central City Mall. The group calls out to the man, referring to him as “officer.”

When they identify themselves as members of the Surrey Creep Catchers, the man swears, pulls up his jacket’s hood and starts running.

The group chases him for several minutes but do no catch him.

A second video, reportedly taken later, shows RCMP at the scene. The camera goes dark but a woman’s voice asks the group to turn in their cell phones so police can dump and sift through the data and find out what is evidence.

The man filming the video agrees to comply and the video ends.

In a statement, Surrey RCMP say they were called about an incident at the mall around 10 p.m. Wednesday.

They say they are “mindful of allegations that the matter involves a police officer,” and confirm they are investigating, but say no one is in custody and no charges have been laid at this point.

“Given the active and ongoing nature of the investigation, it would not be appropriate at this time to discuss the specific allegations,” the statement says. “However we can confirm we are taking this seriously.”
