Calvary police just dropped charges on another suspect in a string of violent extortion cases tied to shootings at a Northeast home. They nabed 21-year-old Karen Beer Singh for discharging a firearm with intent. While 22-year-old German-jeet Singh remains wanted on the same charge. This bill is on an earlier arrest back in early April. The trouble started with the drive-by shooting on February 22nd at 2.45 a.m. in Saddle Ridge, followed by another hit on March 4th, around 5.10 a.m. at the same spot. Cops linked it all after a traffic stop on March 7th turned up key evidence. These incidents are part of a bigger wave hitting Calvary with 41 extortion attempts since January 17 involving shots fired at homes, businesses or cars. No one's been heard so far, but the fear factor is real across the city and country. Law enforcement's teaming up strong Calvary police with Edmonton cops and border services,

sharing intel to track these networks that don't stay local. Officials say it's about sending a hard message, no tolerance for this violence. Meanwhile, they hit another extortion case with charges on April 1 involving threats near a daycare. If you've got tips, hit up Calvary police at 403-266-1234. They're still hunting leads to shut this down for good. That's your update from Calvary News Today, powered by AI.
