SURREY – Police say a suspect who is wanted in connection with a homicide case in Manitoba has been arrested in B.C.

The Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of British Columbia says officers arrested a suspect who was seventh on Canada’s most wanted list while conducting patrols in Surrey, B.C., last week. 

Sgt. Sarbjit K. Sangha of the CFSEU says officers were patrolling in Surrey on March 26 when they identified and arrested Chad Dandan, who is wanted in connection with a homicide investigation in Winnipeg.

Sangha says Dandan was attempting to avoid detection by hiding his identity, but officers still identified and arrested him. 

Dandan had been featured on the national Most Wanted Be On the Look Out (BOLO) list.

Police say Dandan now remains in custody pending further proceedings in Winnipeg.
