A 21-year-old Squamish man has been charged in connection with a shooting that left on Dec. 16. 

Police in Surrey responded to a call of a shooting around 6 p.m. in the 12600-block 67B Avenue. A woman had called the police and said she and her husband had been shot. A young child was found unharmed in a car nearby, police said. Both the woman and her husband were transported to hospital with serious injuries. 

Surrey Police said Wednesday (Jan. 29) that Gagandeep Singh Bakshi was arrested Jan. 15, nearly a month after the incident, and charged the following day (Jan. 16) with one count each of attempted murder, discharge a firearm with intent and aggravated assault, as well as two counts of assault with a weapon.

Bakshi will remain in custody until his next appearance in Surrey provincial court on Feb. 10, police say. 

"The investigation into the shooting was led by the SPOSU Serious Crime Unit and resulted in search warrants being executed at residences in Squamish, Delta, and Surrey between January 16 and 17, 2025, with the assistance of Sea to Sky RCMP, Delta Police Department, SPS, and the Integrated Emergency Response Team (IERT)," a Surrey Police news release says.
