Man convicted of lesser charge in 2020 shooting death in Surrey, B.C.
SURREY, B.C. – The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says a B.C. Supreme Court judge has convicted a man in the shooting death of Pritpal Singh in Surrey, B.C.
Robert Tomljenovic was charged with second-degree murder and robbery with a firearm after Singh’s death in April 2020.
The homicide team says in a news release that Tomljenovic was convicted by the court on Thursday of robbery and a lesser charge of manslaughter.
Police said at the time when charges were laid they believed the shooting was targeted, but RCMP later said it was a random shooting.
Singh was 21 years old.
The man will be sentenced at a later date.
