The name of a 29-year-old Richmond man, killed early Sunday morning in Richmond’s city centre, has been released by police “in hopes of advancing its investigation.”
“Jackie” Giang Giang Tran was found by Richmond RCMP around 5 a.m. near Cooney and Anderson roads suffering from gunshot wounds.
Despite attempts at resuscitation, Tran died at the scene.
