One incident took place in the 10000 block of Semiahmoo Road a little before midnight.

"All I see is him laying on the grass and he was wearing a white shirt, it looked kind of bloody and his wife — I'm guessing it was his wife — she got arrested," said Kyle.

Police confirmed a woman was arrested, but said she hadn't been charged with anything.

Kyle said the couple had moved into the neighbourhood just two weeks earlier.
