Balraj Singh says Harsimrat Randhawa’s parents cannot eat or sleep after receiving the news of their only daughter’s death.
Hamilton police say Randhawa, a 21-year-old Mohawk College student from India, was an innocent bystander killed when the occupants of one vehicle shot at another while she was waiting at a bus stop Thursday evening.
Singh says Randhawa came to Canada two years ago in search of a better life, and she wanted to open her own physiotherapy clinic after graduating from college.

Police say the investigation continues and they are asking anyone with information about the shooting to come forward.
