OUT OF CONTROL: Hapless Police Fired Upon By Gangsters After Killing Of Karman Grewal Outside Vancouver Airport’s Domestic Terminal
- May 10, 2021
Sunday’s Killing Of United Nations Gangster Follows Another Killing Saturday in Burnaby!
The killing outside the airport involves another Indo-Canadian gangster, whom the police had warned the public against a few years ago. Social media chatter said it is Karman Grewal, who was featured on a poster the police put out with four other South Asian gangsters, warning the public that associating with any of them could be dangerous and possibly bring harm. It is now confirmed that the dead man is the United Nations gangster Grewal. Hapless police have become spectators and cleanup crew for gangsters’ dirty deeds and emboldened gangsters even fired upon police following the airport killing as they were getting away. A police vehicle with a bullet hole could be seen in photos after officers responded to the shooting incident and many social media posts highlighted that gangsters lit up the police with as many as seven shots. It’s time for police to get the upper hand before more innocent people become targets as was the case with Corrections Officer Bikramjeet Randhawa or bystanders getting injured or killed from the brazen gunfire.

RICHMOND — Police forces around Metro Vancouver need a big head shake as gangsters are ruling the streets, killing at will from Surrey, to Vancouver and Burnaby to Richmond with the latest brazen killing at Vancouver airport’s domestic terminal Sunday afternoon.

It’s time for police to get the upper hand before more innocent people become targets as was the case with Corrections Officer Bikramjeet Randhawa or bystanders getting injured or killed from the brazen gunfire.
After they were fired upon, Richmond RCMP took the unprecedented step of closing the Queensborough, Knight, and Oak Street Bridges, as well as the Massey Tunnel, which took hours to reopen. SkyTrain service was also shut around the area as was the airport, both of which resumed operations hours later.
RCMP helicopters were brought out and circled the area as social media posts showed the scene around the airport where the shooting victim’s body could be seen on the pavement, and bullet casings nearby. The airport has been reopened, and a tweet from YVR says the “situation has been contained.”
BC RCMP spokesperson Dawn Roberts told Global News calls came in between after 3 p.m., and that police were still searching for one or more suspects.
“We do not have anybody in custody. We have not had additional reports of additional shootings underway, which is what I would classify as an active situation,” Roberts said.
A witness who asked not to be identified out of fear for their safety said they saw several people dressed in black outside the departures terminal, two of whom fired more than a dozen shots.
The killers and associates fled in a Honda Pilot, shooting at police as they made their getaway. A Honda Pilot later found burning in Surrey’s Royal Heights neighbourhood is believed to be the suspects’ vehicle used in the murder.
A white Mercedes with the door still open remained behind police tape, and an area on the sidewalk was covered by a blue tent.
Police said the usual post shooting mantra that it was too early to say whether the incident was gang-related or connected to a spate of recent shootings across the region.
Police further said it was too soon to link this torched vehicle, located in the 9700 block of Princess Drive in Surrey around 3:30 p.m., to the airport shooting even though social media was lit up with picture of the dead gangster, including many identifying him as the shooter who killed a man Saturday in Burnaby.
The airport shooting comes a day after the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team was called after a man died of his injuries after a shooting in Burnaby at 13th Avenue and 6th Street Saturday night.
A witness reported hearing multiple shots outside a martial arts studio around 7 p.m., and ran outside to do first aid on the victim, whom he described as a man in his 20s.
The investigation is still in its early stages.
Last week saw a young woman sent to hospital following an early-morning shooting in Burnaby.
Burnaby RCMP say several shots were fired around 4:10 a.m. Sunday near Boundary Road and Dubois Street.
A 25-year-old woman, whose name has not been released, was found suffering multiple gunshot wounds.
Police originally said the victim’s injuries were “life threatening” but her status was upgraded to stable by last Sunday afternoon.
A 43-year-old Burnaby man was arrested at a residence in Burnaby, away from the location of the shooting. He remains in custody pending further investigation.
Police called it a targeted shooting and an isolated incident.
There has been a string of targeted shootings that have bloodied the streets of Metro Vancouver in recent weeks.
The current shootings began on April 17, when Brothers Keepers gangster Harb Dhaliwal, 31, was shot to death in Coal Harbour. An alleged hitman from out-of-province, Francois Gauthier, has been charged in his murder.
On April 19, 20-year-old Bailey McKinney was gunned down in a Coquitlam park. And on April 20, United Nations gangster Todd Gouwenberg, 46, was executed as he arrived at the Langley Sportsplex for a workout.
In the last two weeks alone there have been at least six shootings, four of them fatal.
