Three men arrested, charged with firearm offence

Vancouver: 24 hours after the arrest of  three men by Surrey Police Service (SPS) following firing of shots, today police announced they are now charged with Criminal Code offences.

Harjot Singh, a 21-year-old male, has been charged with one count of discharging a firearm into a place contrary to section 244.2(1)(a) of the Criminal Code.

Taranveer Singh, a 19-year-old male, has been charged with one count of discharging a firearm into a place contrary to section 244.2(1)(a) of the Criminal Code.

Dayajeet Singh Billing, a 21-year-old male, has been charged with one count of discharging a firearm into a place contrary to section 244.2(1)(a) of the Criminal Code.

SPS authorities informed that the investigation is ongoing  and additional charges may be forthcoming.

On February 1, 2026, at approximately 3:50 am,  SPS members assigned to Project Assurance, working in collaboration with SPS’s Major Crime Section, were patrolling in Surrey’s Crescent Beach neighbourhood when reports came in of shots fired and a small fire outside a residence near Crescent Road and 132 Street. The three accused were arrested by SPS officers a short time later near 28 Avenue and 140 Street after getting into a rideshare vehicle.

SPS’s Major Crime Section took over the investigation and the three men have now been charged with Criminal Code offences.

All three have been remanded in custody until February 5, 2026. SPS has confirmed they are all foreign nationals and has engaged Canada Border Services Agency.

SPS  has  released  the photos of Harjot Singh, Taranveer Singh, and Dayajeet Singh Billing after determining that the disclosure is necessary to assist with the ongoing police investigation.  SPS hopes that the public release of images can prompt additional witnesses, victims, or associates to come forward with relevant information regarding the activities of one or more on the morning of or before February 1, 2026.
