VANCOUVER --
The man killed in Thursday night's brazen shooting at a busy shopping mall in Burnaby, B.C., has been identified as a 23-year-old with gang affiliations.
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team said Jaskeert Kalkat was one of the three people struck by gunfire at the Market Crossing shopping complex. The other two, a man and a woman, survived but suffered what authorities described as severe injuries.
"It's still early in the investigation but we believe all three were targeted in the shooting," Sgt. Frank Jang said Friday.
Kalkat was known to police and investigators believe his gang ties played a role in his murder.
