Charges laid after man shot dead in Langley last year
Targeted event linked to B.C. gang conflict, investigators say
Charges have been laid in connection with a shooting death in Langley, B.C., last September.
When officers arrived at 196 Street and 84 Avenue, they found a man suffering from gunshot wounds.
Johnathan Hebrada-Walters, 38, of Edmonton, died of his injuries at the scene.
Another man, also suffering from gunshot wounds, was located at 208 Street and 78 Avenue and taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Barinder Singh Dhaliwal,42, was arrested and charged on Wednesday with possession of a loaded firearm, unauthorized possession of a firearm and possession of a firearm while prohibited.
No one has yet been charged with Hebrada-Walters's homicide.
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) say that the B.C. Prosecution Service laid the charges based on the evidence it provided.
IHIT says that there are no additional suspects and that no additional information will be released as the matter is before the courts.
