  • Man flees to India in AP Dhillon shooting

Mounties on Vancouver Island say a man has been arrested in Ontario and another is believed to have fled to India after shots were fired at a home in Greater Victoria last month.

West Shore R-C-M-P say on September 2nd, officers were called to a home in Colwood, finding evidence of shots fired and two vehicles on fire in the home's driveway. 

Police say a 25-year-old Winnipeg man has been charged with discharging a firearm and arson, with another arrest warrant for a 23-year-old man who used to live in Winnipeg believed to be in India. 

Property records show the home is owned by Punjabi music star A-P Dhillon, who posted on Instagram after the shooting that he was safe.

The minister said there's no timeline on when the water will start flowing, and "current modelling" shows that overtopping of the dam is more likely than a sudden break. They estimate it will take 12 to 24 hours for water and debris from the dam to reach Hope, B.C., about 500 kilometres south of the massive landslide.
