New charges in biker-related shooting,
CRIME: Hells Angel member, woman, shot near Grey St.
More charges have been laid against two of three men arrested in connection with last week's biker-related shooting in London.Both Bevrol Campbell, 25, of Brampton and Andre Williams, 26, of London were to have bail hearings Monday. Their cases were adjourned to Thursday, to match the date of co-accused Germaine Phillpotts, 26, of London, who's also requested a bail hearing.
While Campbell and Williams appeared only briefly in the Ontario Court of Justice, three more criminal charges were officially added to the original charge of occupying a motor vehicle while knowing there was a handgun inside.
They are jointly charged with two gun-related counts and each is charged separately with breaching a weapons prohibition.
Phillpotts is facing similar extra charges.
There's a publication ban on evidence at the hearing.
Last Wednesday, Diamond Ialenti, a known full-patch London Hells Angel, was shot near Grey St. outside the purported Hells Angels clubhouse, along with a woman.
Police have said that the shooting is related to a turf war for the city's illegal drug trade between street gangs and the Hells Angels.
Several sources have said the FU Crew and the Outlaws motorcycle club are pushing back against the Hells Angels attempts to take over the city's drug business.
The shootings followed three suspicious fires -- at two massage parlours and a strip club -- in London.
A Hell Angels-connected massage parlour was also torched in St. Thomas.
London police said late last week they have an arrest warrant out for a fourth person in connection with the shootings, but won't say who it is.
