Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 13 Mar, 2024 10:20 AM

Police in Surrey say a 38-year-old man has been charged with second-degree murder, 18 months after the shooting death of 37-year-old Troy Michael Regnier.

Surrey R-C-M-P say the B-C Prosecution Service has charged Justin Bos in Regnier's death.

Police say Regnier was found outside a home on August 27th, 2022, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds, and three suspects were arrested at the time, though no charges were laid.

Corporal Sukhi Dhesi with the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says officers were committed to the investigation for 18 months, and says they hope the charge announcement provides solace to the victim's family
