A black, burning sedan was found by Richmond RCMP yesterday afternoon near Cambie and No. 5 Roads Wednesday afternoon in connection to a Surrey shooting.
Surrey RCMP received reports of shots being fired on Tuesday and later found a man identified as Ranjeev Sangha, 41, who was declared dead at the scene.
Those responsible immediately fled in a black four-door sedan. A car of that description was found burning approximately one hour later in Richmond, 100 metres off of Cambie Road on a pedestrian path.
Now, Mounties are asking the public to bring forward any dash cam footage they may have from along Highway 99 or Highway 91 between 11:46 a.m. and 12:49 p.m. on Nov. 26.
“Retracing Ranjeev Sangha’s movements prior to his death will be one of the priorities for our detectives and we urge anyone who can help us achieve this end to contact us immediately,” said Cpl. Frank Jang of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team in a press release.
Investigators believe the murder of Sangha was a targeted incident and are working to determine a motive.
