1 Shot, 3 Injured, And 2 In Custody After Incident At Hamilton Home: Police

The Canadian Press, 09 May, 2017 11:11 AM
    HAMILTON — Police say two suspects are in custody and they're searching for at least three others after a targeted incident at a Hamilton home that injured multiple people.
     
    Const. Steve Welton told local news channel CP24 that one man was taken to hospital in life-threatening condition with a gunshot wound.
     
    Welton says a woman and two other people in the home were "assaulted in some manner," while another person was not harmed.
     
    He says investigators do not believe it was a random incident, but are concerned by the use of firearms in a residential area.
     
    Welton says the suspects left a vehicle at the scene and officers were searching the area.
     
    But he said they haven't identified any ongoing threats in the neighbourhood.
