Darpan News Desk , 14 Dec, 2017 01:28 PM

One man is now charged with several offences after Surrey RCMP investigated a shooting in the Royal Heights area of the Surrey/Delta border on November 23, 2017 that resulted in one male being injured.

Police who responded that day found a 33-year-old Surrey man suffering from a gunshot wound and, as a precaution, ordered Royal Heights Elementary to be put on lockdown.

The attacker fled before police arrived but was quickly identified.

Trevor Robert MCKAY, 27 years old of no fixed address, is alleged to have committed the following six offences for which he has now been charged:

One count of Discharging a firearm at a person with intent to injure

One count of Intentionally discharging a firearm while being reckless as to the life or safety of a person

One count of Aggravated assault

One count of Uttering threats

One count of Using a firearm while committing an indictable offence

One count of Possession of shaved keys for breaking into a motor vehicle

This individual was identified as a potential suspect early on and was in custody on unrelated matters shortly after this incident. He remains in custody on these new charges, says Corporal Scotty Schumann. This incident is not related to the current conflicts being experienced by several jurisdictions around the Lower Mainland.
