Looks like this guy walked on all charges... | we live in Canada. our court system is devoid of handing out stiff penal sentences. you seem somewhat surprised.

My friend told me there was a drive-by incident on E.22nd and Nootka a few days ago. I can't find any resources/news on it.. Anyone know if its true? Maybe he's just trying to trip me out because I live like 1min away from there.

KASH HEED (what a name) West Van Police Chief has "resigned" today less than 2yrs on the job
Mayors office will only say he resigned
they must have caught him doing something really bad like paying prostitutes with seized drugs like the former vancouver chief did (or so the rumor goes)

man, we should all chip in to fund shooting practice for the gangs. If they can kill whoever they need to kill in 1 shot, the chance of an innocent bystander getting hurt is zero.

speculation is he resigned to get into politics. apparently he wants to change some laws

Police investigating suspicious death in Maple Ridge
John Ackermann MAPLE RIDGE (NEWS1130) | Friday, February 27th, 2009 7:45 am
Bookmark
MAPLE RIDGE (NEWS1130) - Mounties in Maple Ridge confirm a crash that happened yesterday afternoon is being treated as a suspicious death.
Police got a call around 1:30 about a car lying upside-down in a ditch near 132nd Avenue and 216th Street.
Neighbours reported hearing shots fired just before, and when police pulled out the vehicle, they found it filled with bullet holes.
The body of a man was also recovered and police plan to release more information later today.
Investigators say it's still to early to link this case to drugs or gangs. Story
