Two gang associates charged after visiting Port Coquitlam gun range

Two men with gang ties have been charged after allegedly firing weapons at a Port Coquitlam gun range – and breaking their prohibition order.

B.C.’s Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit arrested the pair back on Dec. 21.

Matin Pouyan, 31, and Bi Dong “Adam” Lam, 25, each face a charge of possession of a firearm contrary to a prohibition order.

They are set to appear in court in Vancouver tomorrow.

Pouyan has been involved in high-profile shootings in the past.

He served 18 months for a nightclub shooting in Abbotsford in 2004, and was shot himself in Kitsilano in 2009.
