Christmas Light Tour

Decorating your house for Christmas has been a long standing tradition around the world. People take it to new lengths every season and try their hardest to make a spectacular show for their neighbours to enjoy.

Christmas decoration now includes giant inflatables, gobo strobe lights, new LED lights in a multitude of colours, lite sculptures, animated figurines and home made cut outs of every one's favorite cartoon or Disney characters and strands of lights twisted around trees and eves.

There is no obvious regard to cost and speaking with several home owners, they all said "they love to decorate every year, for the children". I think they do it for the child inside.

Langley RCMP arrest two in Assault with skateboard.



LANGLEY CITY, B.C. - A man is in a coma this morning after a 15-year-old boy allegedly struck him in the face with a skateboard, fracturing his skull and crushing his nasal cavity.
The incident occurred Friday night after the 43-year-old victim got into an argument with a group of four to five teenagers at the main bus loop on Logan Avenue at Glover Road in Langley City, RCMP said today in a news release.
Before he was struck with the skateboard around 7:30 p.m., the argument turned physical when a 17-year-old female allegedly started pushing the man around, said police.

The man was transported to Royal Columbian Hospital where he is listed in critical but stable condition and is expected to survive. However, the lasting effects of his injuries are unknown at this time.
Four young people were arrested and two have been released. A 15-year-old male and 17-year-old female, both Langley residents, remain in custody and are expected to face charges, RCMP said.
The investigation is continuing and any witnesses to the incident are asked to contact Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
