VANCOUVER — Police say a suspect who was charged with multiple counts of dangerous driving over a car-ramming attack last month in Vancouver is now facing a murder charge.
Tadd Bali was charged with four counts of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle after allegedly driving a Jeep along a sidewalk in Vancouver's West End, hitting a senior on a mobility scooter before running head-on into a police cruiser.
Vancouver police say the 34-year-old man now faces one count each of second-degree murder and attempted murder, and two charges of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing bodily harm.
Two police officers were also hurt and were released from hospital on the same day, but the senior died in hospital more than a week later.
Police say Bali has had "extensive interactions" with police in both B.C. and Saskatchewan.
He remains in custody.
