An Abbotsford man has been arrested and charged in relation to a shooting incident in Brampton, Ont.

Tanmanjot Gill, 23, has been charged with possessing property obtained by crime, discharging a firearm in a reckless manner, possessing a loaded or restricted firearm, occupying a vehicle knowing there was a firearm present, and two counts of illegally possessing a firearm.

Peel Regional Police say two men went to a Brampton business at 3:37 a.m. on Saturday (Dec. 9) and fired several rounds. Nobody was injured.

Police arriving on the scene caught one of the suspects and seized two guns, a loaded magazine and ammunition.

The other suspect remains at large. He is described as South Asian with a medium build, black hair and a full beard. He was wearing a grey sweatshirt during the incident, but it is believed that he switched clothing during his escape to a black sweatshirt with a large white “X” on the back.
