A 40-year-old Ontario man has been charged in the homicide of Tory (Tori) Dunn, a Surrey woman who was killed during a violent home invasion on Father’s Day.
Dunn, 30, died after being attacked on June 16 in her home near the 9800-block of 182A Street.
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team said Adam Mann is facing a second-degree murder after Surrey police found him while they were on their way to Dunn’s home after receiving a call for help.

At the time of Dunn’s killing, Mann was facing an unrelated aggravated assault charge for an alleged attack in Surrey three weeks earlier and is due in court over that case on July 2.
Dunn’s father Aron posted on Facebook days after she was killed that his daughter was the victim of a home invasion.
In a social media post, he wrote that his daughter was inside her home in Surrey’s Port Kells neighbourhood when someone broke in.
Sgt. Timothy Pierotti, a spokesperson for IHIT, said her legal name is spelled Tory but it’s understood that she commonly went by Tori.
“We, her family cannot begin to understand how someone as kind as Tori could be victim to such senseless violence. Tori was loved by all that she met. She devoted her time and love to her friends and family, someone who lit up the room with her smile and laugh. She is loved more than words,” Dunn wrote.
IHIT is asking anyone with dash-camera or surveillance video in the area around the 9800-block of 182A Street, Surrey, on June 16 between 9 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., to contact the IHIT Information Line at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or by email at ihitinfo@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.
