0:00Two people now face charges in a deadly highway, shooting south of Edmonton, called a senseless crime by Alberta Mounties. On March 14, 22-year-old Berinder Singh was driving his black Honda Civic with two friends along the QEIA near Ladoo, when a pickup. Truck pulled up beside them around 2.50 pm. A quick exchange happened. Folks in the truck flashed what looked like a peace sign, and Singh's crew waved back thinking it was friendly. Years later, shots rang out from the truck, striking Singh in the neck. He managed to stop the car safely, but passed away soon after, with the truck speeding off. One of Singh's friends, staying anonymous for safety, shared the horror of pressing on the wound and dialing 911, but the blood loss was too. Much, no ties between the groups, and Singh's family is out of the country, though cops have reached them. Mounties are telling the Sikh community this wasn't targeted hate. 18-year-old Jimmy Gasner from Lloydminster got nabbed March 21st in Saskatchewan, charged

1:01with second-degree murder as the alleged, shooter from the truck. Then 23-year-old, Diane Lipsichill, already in custody on other stuff, was charged March 26 with second-degree murder and accessory after the fact. Cops say both were known to them, and all suspects are locked up. Motives still fuzzy, but seems partly random. No road rage, robbery, or bias, though suspects might link to gangs. Investigators ruled out anything against the innocent victims, and called this rare. Quick work closed the case fast, bringing some justice to a tragic loss. That wraps Vancouver news, today brought to you with AI.
