UPDATE:
Alberta RCMP Major Crimes Unit is seeking public assistance in obtaining video or surveillance footage of a suspect vehicle involved in the fatal shooting that occurred Oct. 7 in Langdon.
According to an update from Alberta RCMP, the deceased has been identified as 39-year-old Trong Minh Nguyen, a resident of Langdon and former gang member of the FOB in Calgary.
Chestermere RCMP issued a warning last April after Nguyen was released from a prison sentence, upon completion of a 10.5-year sentence for conspiracy to commit murder. According to that press release, Nguyen was considered a high-risk offender, having been incarcerated previously for firearms offences, assault of a peace officer, and failing to comply with his release conditions.
The suspect vehicle, which is described as a 2019 black Dodge Ram, may have been sighted in Langdon, Strathmore, or Chestermere between Sept. 30, and Oct. 7. The suspect vehicle was later located abandoned by RCMP.
RCMP are looking for any of the following to help with the investigation: surveillance footage, dashcam video, or additional information on the suspects or suspects' vehicle.
