PTC Web Desk:  The Canadian police have arrested one suspect linked to the shooting incident at singer AP Dhillon's residence in British Columbia, while another remains at large.

On October 30, the police arrested 25-year-old Abjeet Kingra from Winnipeg, charging him with recklessly discharging a firearm into a residence and setting fire to two vehicles in the 3300 block of Ravenwood Road, Colwood, on September 20. Kingra was apprehended in Ontario and is scheduled to appear in court on Friday.

Meanwhile, an arrest warrant has been issued for 23-year-old Vikram Sharma, who the police believe is currently in India. Although the police do not have a photo of Sharma, they provided specific details for identification: he is described as a South Asian man, approximately 5'9" tall and weighing around 200 pounds (90.71 kg), with black hair and brown eyes.

Superintendent Todd Preston of the West Shore RCMP stated that officials have been diligently investigating the case, leading to the identification of the suspects involved. The investigation will continue until the outstanding suspect is located and arrested.

This incident occurred earlier in September when gunfire was reported outside AP Dhillon's home in the Victoria Island area of Vancouver. Witnesses also observed two vehicles set ablaze near the property. The attack was later claimed by the Lawrence Bishnoi-Rohit Godara gang.
