More charges laid against two men in extortion case in Surrey, B.C.

SURREY — An investigation team in Surrey, B.C., says charges are piling up against two men accused of firing bullets into an extortion victim’s home.
Surrey Police Service’s Extortion Response Team says in a statement that Damanjeet Singh and Pardaman Singh were originally charged with reckless discharge of a firearm and possession of a restricted weapon after a shooting in April.
Police say shots were fired into a home early in the morning on April 22, and while the home was occupied, no one was hurt.
Further charges laid now include two counts of extortion, possession of a loaded prohibited weapon, unauthorized possession of a firearm and being in a vehicle knowing there was a restricted firearm inside.
Both men remain in custody and have court dates this month.
As of May 25, the police service says 112 extortions have been reported to them, with 18 cases of shots fired and two arsons.
