Three men arrested in Royal Oak SkyTrain shooting
Police will be recommending charges of attempted murder against one of the men
VANCOUVER -- Three people have been arrested in connection with a daytime shooting at Royal Oak SkyTrain station Tuesday afternoon.
A 22-year-old Surrey man believed to be the shooter, along with an 18-year-old from Burnaby and a 15-year-old from an undetermined area, were arrested around 1:30 p.m. Wednesday after a short pursuit, said Sgt. Ted De Jager of the Burnaby RCMP.
"When we attempted to arrest them [at a Surrey residence] they attempted to flee in a vehicle," De Jager said. "They abandoned that vehicle and a short foot pursuit with the three of them ensued and they were arrested together."
Police will be recommending charges of attempted murder against the 22-year-old, De Jager said. Charges are pending against the other two suspects.
Police received multiple 911 calls around 5:10 p.m. on Wednesday after a 22-year-old Surrey man was shot while ascending the stairs to the central Royal Oak SkyTrain station platform. The man, who suffered non-life-threatening-injuries, then boarded a train to Edmonds station, where police attended to him.
De Jager said it is too early to say whether there are any links to drugs or gangs.
"We know that it was a targeted shooting but exactly what their relationship to each other is, and what they're involved in, that's something that we'll have to continue to investigate," De Jager said.
De Jager did not know if the victim was being cooperative with police作者: tiffiant 時間: 2011-3-23 18:56
