The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said the two men did not know one another and the shooting is believed to be random.
“IHIT investigators and our partners from the Surrey RCMP worked relentlessly around the clock since day one to advance the investigation of Pritpal’s murder,” Sgt. Frank Jang said.
A court date for Tomljenovic is scheduled for Friday.
