22 year old Armaan Singh Chandi, of Surrey, was sentenced to nine years in prison yesterday (Thurs).

the co-accused in the case had pled guilty to attempted murder and was sentenced to seven years in prison back in February.

The two men were arrested and charged after spraying a Nanaimo car with bullets back in March of 2016.

The man inside the car was an innocent bystander and police had said it was likely a case of mistaken identity.

After the shooting, the two men were arrested at the TransCanada and Trunk intersection in Duncan where their escape was hindered due to congested traffic.
