Homicide investigators are looking for any witnesses of a targeted double shooting in Surrey to come forward.

Surinderpal Singh Hehar died after a gunman attacked him and a second man in Surrey's East Newton neighbourhood, near his home at 152 Street and 66A Avenue on Nov. 21. The second gunshot victim suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Hehar, a longshoreman, was a beloved member of the field hockey club, members say.
