Kane was accused in a Vancouver gangland shooting that left a teenage bystander dead.
After five days of deliberations, the jury told the judge they were deadlocked.
Carter pleaded not guilty to two counts of second-degree murder in the January 2018 attack.
The shooting left alleged gangster Kevin Whiteside and 15-year-old bystander Alfred Wong dead. Wong was struck by a bullet while travelling in the back seat of his parent’s car, while another bystander was grazed by a bullet in his own vehicle.
Carter’s defence team did raise the possibility of a possible bail application for Carter who, remains in custody for now.
