SURREY: Surrey RCMP informed the public of three separate shootings that occurred over the last weekend. The police said, “While it is too early to conclusively determine a motive, all three shootings appear to be targeted, and investigators are exploring links to criminal activity and the drug trade.”
Police are looking for any additional witnesses, or those who may have dash cam at the following dates/locations:
· November 27, 5:13 pm in the 13300-block of 95A Avenue. A 58-year-old woman was shot in a driveway and transported to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The shooting appears to be targeted, however the victim is not believed to be the intended target of the shooting.
