Charges laid in White Rock man's shooting

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 08 Nov, 2023 02:57 PM

Charges have now been laid in the fatal April 2022 shooting of 33-year-old White Rock resident David Goldstein.

At the time of his death, police said the shooting -- at a south Surrey home -- did not appear random, but was not linked to the ongoing Metro Vancouver gang conflict.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says Bryce Dallas Campbell -- who is in his late 20s, has been charged with first-degree murder.

Court documents show Campbell is scheduled to return to court in Surrey next Thursday.
