Police say there is no direct link to a targeted shooting in Surrey Monday night and the murder of Jonathan Bacon. But investigators admit the man who was shot at does have gang connections.
The 32-year-old was getting into an SUV outside the Mirage nightclub around 10:40 p.m. when a gunman sprayed the vehicle with up to eight bullets.
Sgt. Peter Thiessen with the RCMP's "E" Division said while there is nothing tying the incident to the Bacon murder at this point, investigators are exploring any underworld links the man may have.
"We're trying to determine his background, what association he has with gang members or gangs generally and how strong that affiliation or association might be," he said.
