TL:DR

For real, fam? This 21-year-old, Nahom Gizaw, just got charged with TWO counts of second-degree murder 🤯, linking him to deaths back in '22 and '23. Also, some other guy, Gurtaj Singh, got nicked for a double stabbing in Surrey. And Premier Eby out here catching heat for saying the dude who yeeted people at a Filipino fest should rot in jail. Yikes!

The Deets

Okay, so here's the tea. This dude Nahom Gizaw, he's 21, and the cops are saying he's sus in the deaths of Maanav Kinkar (RIP, he was only 18) found back on May 26, 2022, in Surrey, and Caleb Morin (RIP, 22 years old) who got got in South Van on March 2, 2023. Vancouver PD and IHIT (Integrated Homicide Investigation Team) teamed up to crack the case. Gizaw's chilling in jail waiting for court. More deets dropping Friday at 11 AM.

But wait, there's more! In Surrey, on December 14, 2024, it was going down. A double stabbing happened at some crib in Guildford. One woman didn't make it, and another got rushed to the hospital with the big hurt. Gurtaj Singh, also 21, is facing one count of second-degree murder and one count of attempted murder. IHIT thinks more people might be involved, but they're saying it was all over some personal beef, and there's no current threat to the public. If you got any intel, hit up the IHIT line, fr fr.

And finally, Premier David Eby is catching strays for saying that the dude who allegedly plowed into people at the Lapu Lapu Day festival (killing 11, sheesh) should spend "the rest of his goddamned life in jail." Whoa, chill! The Canadian Bar Association is dragging him, saying he's messing with the court's vibe. The accused, Adam Kai-Ji Lo, is looking at eight second-degree murder charges, and probably more coming. Eby already said sorry for his spicy words, but still, awkwaaaard.
