Shooting Targets Cricket Canada President Home in Surrey

Published 21 May 2026

The home of Cricket Canada President Arvinder Khosa was targeted in a shooting early Wednesday morning in Surrey, British Columbia. Police confirmed the residence in the Newton neighbourhood was struck by gunfire around 4:40 a.m. local time while the house was occupied. No injuries were reported, but investigators found at least five bullet holes in the front door, windows, and exterior walls.

Authorities stated the incident is believed to be linked to extortion, though no arrests have been made. The investigation remains active, with police reviewing forensic evidence and surveillance footage. Khosa confirmed the shooting to media but declined to elaborate further.

The attack occurs amid a period of significant turmoil for Cricket Canada, which has faced mounting allegations of governance failures, financial mismanagement, and external influence. Khosa, a Punjabi-born entrepreneur and cricket administrator, was elected president in April following a prolonged leadership dispute that required a British Columbia Supreme Court order to resolve. He has positioned himself as a reformer aiming to restore stability and transparency to the national governing body.
