One man injured in targeted shooting outside home in Surrey, B.C., police say
Surrey police say the attack was targeted and not tied to recent extortion violence, and one man had minor injuries that did not need treatment.
On Wednesday, Surrey Police Service officers responded to a targeted shooting at 3:52 a.m. near 60th Avenue and 177th Street in Cloverdale, where shots were fired at a residence.
Sergeant Ali Gailus revealed "two people were shot at," and one man "sustained a non-life-threatening injury" in the attack. The suspects fled the scene immediately.
The SPS Major Crime Section is leading the investigation, with the Integrated Forensic Identification Services processing physical and digital evidence at the scene.
Investigators believe the attack was targeted, though police do not believe it is linked to recent extortion violence against the South Asian community.
Surrey Police are urging witnesses or anyone with security camera or dashcam footage to contact them as the investigation remains in early stages.
