Mounties in Surrey say they have found the stolen car he fled in, but the man who allegedly lit a shopkeeper on fire Friday remains at large.

In an update Saturday afternoon, the Surrey RCMP said the public helped police recover a white Mini Cooper the suspect stole and drove away in after the terrifying attack at a currency exchange in Whalley.

The suspect, described by police as a young man, has not been apprehended.

Police also confirmed the assailant threw accelerant at the victim and lit him on fire, having previously only publicly stated that a serious assault occurred and that the victim was severely injured.
