On a Monday afternoon in Vancouver, a 38-year-old man was shot dead in the parking lot of the University Golf Club near UBC — not by chance, but by design. Homicide investigators believe this was a targeted killing, one whose ripples spread quickly across the Lower Mainland in the form of a vehicle fire and a highway collision. Three suspects are now in custody, and while authorities assure the public that no broader threat exists, the deliberate nature of the act speaks to a violence that is organized, purposeful, and still being unraveled.
