A security guard at the University of British Columbia's Okanagan campus (UBCO) who died after being assaulted on the job Saturday has now been identified as 24-year-old Harmandeep Kaur.

Kaur, who was originally from India, came to Canada in 2015 and, according to a spokesperson for the Kaur family, was excited about pursuing an education, and eventually a family, in B.C.

She had just received her permanent residency and was considering studying to be a paramedic. While working security to try and put money away for school, she was attacked on the Kelowna campus by a male university worker.

The unidentified attacker was subsequently detained under the Mental Health Act and taken to hospital, with police saying he could face murder charges.

They sure are tight lipped about what actually happened. Is this a murderer, who's going to get off on mental illness and they don't want us knowing what he actually did?

The attacker was a White guy. It was mentioned in the Punjabi Newspaper. It was a brutal attack. He repeatedly assaulted her with a tool.

A 22-year-old man has been charged with murder in the fatal attack on security guard Harmandeep Kaur at UBC Okanagan in February.

The second-degree murder charge was approved Tuesday against Dante Ognibene-Hebbourn of Kelowna, according to a statement from the RCMP.

 

"This has been a difficult few weeks for the community in the aftermath of the tragic events of Feb. 26.  The response in support to the woman's family has been remarkable," Kelowna RCMP Insp. Beth McAndie said in the statement.

Ognibene-Hebbourn has been arrested and is scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday.
