Mission/Langley ( with files from Postmedia-Kim Bolan, RCMP) – On September 8, two young adults were seriously injured during an alleged assault that occurred during a road rage incident in Mission. Police previously released photos of the two suspects, in an effort to locate them.
Investigators can now confirm that the male suspect was Johnathan Hebrada-Walters, 38, from the Edmonton area. He was found deceased in Langley on September 21, and the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team has said that they believe the homicide was related to the BC Gang Conflict.
