Surrey, Nov 10: A central Surrey vehicle stop during the early morning hours of November 8 resulted in the arrest of Surrey resident Paramveer Singh Deol, 18, after law enforcement officers located a loaded 9mm pistol inside a white Porsche.
Police reports declared that a frontline patrol officer initially noted the vehicle’s dangerous operation at approximately 1:37 AM. SPS representatives asserted that the automobile rapidly accelerated, proceeded past a red signal, and did not comply with police signals to pull over.
Officers attached to SPS Project Assurance coordinated with frontline units to safely halt the vehicle and apprehend the driver. A search conducted shortly after the stop revealed the loaded firearm within the car’s interior.
Legal authorities with the BC Prosecution Service approved eight charges against Deol, detailing infractions such as dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, failing to pull over for police, occupying a vehicle containing a firearm, and unlicensed possession of a loaded firearm. Prosecutors also cited careless transportation of a 9mm pistol, lack of a registration certificate, and two counts of breaching existing release conditions.
The accused remains detained pending an upcoming judicial bail hearing.
