Two men from Mississauga – one of 18 years and another of 19 years – surrendered and were charged with first-degree murder, police said. The two suspects are at large, they added.

Witnesses reported at least three men running into a getaway vehicle after the shooting.

“It looks like he (the victim) was ambushed,” said a man identified as Jamal.

He said a family lived in the home and had a tenant in the basement.

“It’s so sad. So sad to see how people were wishing you a happy bday 2 days ago and now you are no more. No matter what was the cause, you didn’t deserve to die,” wrote a friend in a Facebook post.

Singh’s killing marked the 11th murder of the year in Brampton, another media report said.
