Peel Regional Police have arrested three men on Canada-wide warrants in connection with two shooting incidents linked to an extortion case in Brampton, Ontario.
On 10 and 11 July, 2025, shots were fired at homes on Rolling Acres Drive. No one was injured, but suspects were seen fleeing in a black Chrysler 300, later recovered in Winnipeg on 13 July.
Following an extensive investigation, police made three arrests:
- 20-year-old Husandeep Singh of Mississauga was arrested on 27 July and charged with discharging a firearm with intent and extortion.
- 23-year-old Gurpreet Singh, of no fixed address, was arrested in Winnipeg on 26 August and charged with two counts of discharging a firearm with intent and extortion.
- 26-year-old Gurdeep Shergill of Delta, British Columbia, was arrested in Surrey on 12 September with the assistance of the Surrey Police Service. He faces the same charges as Gurpreet Singh.
All three men were transported to Ontario, where they remain in custody pending bail hearings.
Peel Regional Police thanked Surrey Police Service for its support. While Shergill was arrested in Surrey, local investigators confirmed there is currently no link between him and the ongoing wave of extortion cases targeting Surrey’s South Asian community.
Surrey Police are separately investigating 44 extortion cases and 27 related shootings, with Mayor Brenda Locke announcing a $250,000 reward fund for tipsters who help secure convictions.
