Statement from Officer in Charge regarding shooting investigations

Over the past two days Surrey has experienced 5 shootings and 1 male from Langley was found with injuries sustained from an unrelated shooting on the Surrey/Langley border.
These incidents are of great concern and I want to assure the public that we are actively investigating each of these files. The 6 occurrences resulted in 3 injured males who all attended hospital and have since been released. The victims have been primarily uncooperative with police.
This morning a briefing was held with our investigative units as well as other partner agencies. At this point, we believe that all 6 of these shootings were targeted, and 4 are related. The most recent shooting on a residence last night and the Langley male that was shot are not believed to be connected to the first 4 shootings.
The 4 related shootings involve people who are involved in low level drug crime. From the intelligence that has been gathered so far, there is nothing to indicate that these incidents are tied to organized gangs. However, these people are clearly violent and have shown a complete disregard for public safety.
This is a critical time in our investigation and we are asking anyone with information on any of these events to contact the Surrey RCMP or Crime Stoppers if you wish to remain anonymous.
Specifically, our investigators are
interested in knowing more about the activities of 5 males who are believed to be involved in the 4 related shootings:
• Pardip BRAR (Delta resident, age 20)
• Indervir JOHAL (Surrey resident, age 21)
• Amrit KULAR (Surrey resident, age 20)
• Pardeep SINGH (Surrey resident, age 20)
• Sameh MOHAMMED (Surrey resident, age 20)
All 5 of these individuals are known to police.
In addition, we are looking for 3 vehicles that are believed to be associated to the males and shootings:
• Grey Volkswagon PASSAT or JETTA
• Black ACURA TL
• White sports utility vehicle
While we have engaged other law enforcement partners as we typically do during investigations like these, the Surrey RCMP have retained carriage of these investigations. I will reiterate that, at this point, we do not believe that any of these events are tied to high level gang activity.
For those involved in these shootings or people who know them – I ask you to think about the safety of your family, friends and the general public. The manner that you have chosen to resolve this dispute is careless and unacceptable.

For the citizens of Surrey, I offer you my commitment that we are working extremely hard on all of these events – not only to solve the cases that have occurred but to safeguard against any further incidents.
