Two men are facing firearm-related Criminal Code charges following an early-morning police investigation in Surrey that began after officers reported hearing a suspected gunshot.

Surrey Police Service officers assigned to Project Assurance were patrolling the area of 129 Street and 84 Avenue around 3:50 a.m. when they heard what they believed was a shot fired. Police located a suspect vehicle shortly afterward and took the driver and a passenger into custody. A loaded handgun was seized during the arrest.

Project Assurance is a proactive policing initiative focused on neighbourhoods and business areas that have been targeted by extortion and extortion-related shootings. The investigation was later taken over by the Surrey Police Service Major Crime Section.

Harshdeep Singh, 20, has been charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and occupying a vehicle knowing a firearm was present. Hanspreet Singh, 21, has been charged with occupying a vehicle knowing a firearm was present. Both men are foreign nationals and remain in custody until January 30, 2026. Police have also engaged the Canada Border Services Agency.

The investigation remains ongoing and police say additional charges are possible. Anyone with information, including CCTV or dashcam footage from the area, is asked to contact Surrey Police Service at 604-599-0502 and quote file number 26-8529 (SP).
