Two foreign nationals arrested in Surrey in extortion shooting
SURREY — Two foreign nationals have been arrested in connection to extortion violence in Surrey, B.C., where there has been a spike in shootings at homes and businesses this year.
Police say 22-year-old Damanjeet Singh and 30-year-old Pardaman Singh were arrested after officers, including the Lower Mainland District Emergency Response Team and Canada Border Services Agency, served a search warrant on a home in Surrey.
Police say they tracked down the address and made the arrests after investigators identified a suspect vehicle in a shooting that happened on April 22 in the city.
Shots were fired at the home in the overnight hours, damaging the building’s exterior, although no one inside was injured.
