Lower Mainland man dies after being ‘critically injured’ in shooting

A White Rock man has died of his injuries after he shot in the Lower Mainland earlier this week.

On April 6, at around 1:30 a.m., Surrey RCMP officers responded to shots fired at a home at 24 Avenue and 152A Street in the city. On arrival, first responders found a 33-year-old man with critical injuries. He was transported to the hospital but later died from his injuries April 8.

The victim has been identified by police as David Goldstein from White Rock. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team continues its investigation.

At this time, the shooting does not appear to be random and it is not connected to the ongoing Lower Mainland gang conflict, according to police.

The homicide investigations team is looking to speak to anyone who knew Goldstein or the activity at that residence.

Homicide investigators are also interested in gathering surveillance video or dash-cam footage from the area of 24 Avenue and 152A Street on April 6 at around 1:30 a.m.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the IHIT information line at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or by email.
