Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 20 Jan, 2015 11:38 AM

LANGLEY, B.C. — Police say a 43-year-old man in Langley, B.C., is facing nine firearms-related charges over a clash involving drugs and money.

Matthew Endean is in custody, and his next court appearance is scheduled for Thursday.

RCMP say the charges against him involve two incidents, including a single shot fired in a back alley in early December.

They say witnesses reported hearing an altercation and seeing an SUV leaving the alley.

On Jan. 5, police say they received a report about a disturbance that turned out to be a home invasion and then a call from someone concerned about the safety of a family member.

RCMP say Endean had a loaded firearm and a substance believed to be marijuana when he was arrested on Jan. 9.
