  • Roman Arinder Gill & Shaun Narinder Gill charged following shots fired in Guildford

Two men in Surrey are facing charges after allegedly fleeing from police and pointing a firearm at an officer in Guildford on the afternoon of December 29th of last year. 

On December 30th of last year 24-year-old Roman Arinder Gill and 28-year-old Shaun Narinder Gill were charged with various firearm offences. 

Mounties say officers were called Friday to a report of shots fired, when two suspects fled the area in a blue Range Rover.

They say while police were attempting to stop the vehicle, one of the suspects allegedly pointed a firearm at an officer before the two were arrested.

Investigators say both men are known to police and the incident is believed to be linked to the province's gang conflict.
