Calgary Police
After extensive follow-up investigation into a brazen organized crime-related that occurred last September, additional charges have been laid.
At approximately 2:45 p.m., on Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023, a driver called police to report a shooting involving two vehicles that occurred on westbound Glenmore Trail, near 37 Street S.W. Both vehicles fled the scene prior to police arrival and no injuries were reported.
Approximately 30 minutes later, police were called to a residence located in the 100 block of Seton Passage S.E., for reports a man had been shot while parking his vehicle. Upon arrival, officers located one man suffering from gunshot wounds. He was transported to hospital in serious condition. It is believed the suspect fired multiple rounds during the shooting in Seton, with stray bullets striking four surrounding residences, before fleeing the scene in a stolen vehicle.
Both shootings had targeted the same victim and were believed to be connected to organized crime conflict in Calgary.
In October 2023, Thanh NGUYEN, 26, of Calgary, was charged with one count each of attempted murder, discharge a firearm with intent, possession of stolen property over $5,000, unlawful possession of a firearm in a vehicle, unlawful possession of a restricted firearm with ammunition, possession of a weapon obtained by crime and possession of a restricted firearm contrary to a prohibition order. After the collection of additional evidence, NGUYEN is now also charged with conspiracy to commit murder, as well as one additional count each of attempted murder and discharge a firearm with intent. NGUYEN will next appear in court on Monday, July 28, 2025.
Last month, investigators also announced additional charges against Masood MOHAMMAD, 30, and Harliv Singh CHEEMA, 20. These charges remain the same and they will next appear in court on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024.
