Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 01 Nov, 2024 11:46 AM

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.
