Sat, Jun 10: Police are still looking for the suspect who opened fire and killed a man in Langley – Jun 10, 2017

One man is dead and another man is in hospital after a brazen shooting outside a Langley restaurant early Saturday morning.

The victim has now been identified as 31-year-old Tyler Pastuck who was well-known to police.

RCMP Inspector Keith Bramhill said officers were called to the scene around midnight after reports of shots fired outside Brown’s Social House on 200 St. and Willowbrook Drive.

He said the restaurant was still open at the time of the shooting.

“There were several patrons obviously very concerning for families and young people and patrons that were there just having a dinner when shots rang out, so it’s very concerning for us.”

Following the shooting, a car located nearby at the intersection of 203 Street and 63 Avenue was set on fire. Mounties said Monday that they have not been able to confirm the vehicle was connected to the homicide.
