IHIT Says Richmond Murder Victim Was 'Known To Police'

The Canadian Press, 19 Sep, 2017 01:36 PM
    Homicide detectives have identified the man shot to death early Monday morning in an apparently targeted attack in Richmond, B.C.
     
    Integrated Homicide Investigation Team Cpl. Meghan Foster said 41-year-old Lucien De Carvalho was known to police.
     
    Foster said the investigation is in its early stages, but there is no evidence to suggest De Carvalho's slaying is linked to other recent fatal shootings around Metro Vancouver.
     
    De Carvalho was found in the street of a residential neighbourhood in Richmond as police responded to reports of a shooting, but despite the efforts of officers and paramedics, he died at the scene.
