The offender was convicted by a jury of second degree murder, attempted murder, and firearms offences following a public shooting at a shopping mall.
The offender fired at an intended target but missed, instead striking and killing an innocent bystander.
The court sentenced the offender to life imprisonment with no parole eligibility for 14 years for the murder, alongside concurrent sentences of 12 years for attempted murder and 8 years for the firearms offences.
The court rejected the application of the rule against multiple convictions for the attempted murder charge, noting the offences involved different victims.
