Mounties in Surrey say a man suffered serious injuries after a shooting in Port Kells Monday night.
Surrey R-C-M-P say they were called to a report of shots fired on 92nd Avenue around 10 p-m where they found a 19-year-old victim with a gunshot wound.
Police say the man was known to them and was transported to hospital for treatment.
They say the detachment's serious crime unit is heading the investigation, and officers believe the shooting was targeted.
The investigation progressed and in November 2020, CFSEU-BC investigators executed search warrants at four residences, two located in Burnaby, one in Vancouver, and one in Abbotsford. Two men and one woman were charged last week with a series of offences including trafficking and possession for the purpose of trafficking.
Police say a school bus tipped over on B.C.’s Sunshine Coast, sending the driver to the hospital with minor injuries. The crash happened at 8:37 a.m. on the side of Highway 101 in Madeira Park, about 100 kilometres northwest of Vancouver.
A B-C Highway Patrol officer says the teen was travelling at a speed of up to 209 kilometres per hour in a 100 kilometres per hour zone last week. The driver is facing multiple charges and is set to appear in court next month.
The city's police say a woman was crossing near Main and Georgia streets when she was struck just before 12:30 p-m. They say the driver is co-operating with the investigation.
