An Alberta man has been charged with attempted murder in connection with a shooting in Surrey, B.C., earlier this year.
The April 17 attack unfolded just after 4 p.m.in the Newton neighbourhood near 76th Avenue and 48 Street.
At the time, police said the victim was shot inside a vehicle, and that a white van was seen fleeing the scene.
Police also said they were probing the discovery of a torched vehicle, also a white van, found near 69th Avenue and 147th Street as potentially connected to the attack.
The victim was treated in hospital and survived.
On Tuesday, Surrey RCMP said 19-year-old Akoch Piot of Calgary was charged with attempted murder, arson, discharging a firearm and possession of a prohibited weapon.
Piot was arrested in Calgary last week, and has since been transferred to British Columbia to face trial.
