‘WE WILL DO EVERYTHING WE CAN,’ B.C. POLICE REASSURE

Top police officials in British Columbia are trying to reassure the public about safety after a gang war left two men dead and an innocent bystander hurt this weekend. Officers say they have charged Ahmed Tahir with a shooting in Burnaby on Saturday that left a 19-year-old man dead and injured the bystander, who is expected to recover. They also identified the victim of a shooting Sunday outside Vancouver’s airport as 28-year-old Karman Grewal, and have linked both shootings to the gang conflict. They say they plan to meet Tuesday with Mike Farnworth, B.C.'S minister of public safety and solicitor general, to lay out their plan. RCMP Assistant Commissioner Dwayne Mcdonald, shown, says that when violence happens in public spaces, it only strengthens their resolve to put an end to it.
