Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 08 May, 2023 09:50 AM

Police have released information about a vehicle involved in a fatal targeted shooting in Surrey, B-C, earlier this month in hopes of resolving the case.

Surrey R-C-M-P say the shooting happened on May 2nd at 8 p-m in a parking lot on 108 Avenue, where officers found two victims who had been shot.

One victim, 20-year-old Jayden Prasad, died of his injuries while the other victim recovered.

Police say they have since recovered in Langley the vehicle seen leaving the shooting scene -- a 2020 blue Hyundai Elantra sedan -- and are asking anyone with information to contact police.
