“The evidence trail that our investigators have been following for the past several months has led to another arrest and a third man charged in the case,” says Sgt. Frank Jang of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team. “The investigation still remains active as we believe we have yet to arrive at the end of the trail. We continue to urge those with information to come forward.”

His brother Keith Baldwin was also murdered weeks prior and found dead on Yale Road in Chilliwack with a gunshot wound to the head.
