Investigators say Hebrada-Walters was known to police and believe the shooting was targeted and linked to the B.C. gang conflict.

Hebrada-Walters was also a suspect in an unrelated case of road rage in Mission on Sept. 8, in which a couple reported being attacked by a man and woman armed with a baseball bat following a traffic incident.
