SURREY – Police have identified the man killed in a late-night shooting in Surrey, B.C., last week, in the hope of advancing the investigation into the death.

Homicide investigators say 26-year-old Jaskaran Birring of Chilliwack had previous interactions with police and was “believed to be involved in the drug trade.”

Birring was found by arriving officers with life-threatening injuries and police say he died despite life-saving measures.
