  • 2 dead in Kelowna shooting

RCMP officers in Kelowna, B.C., are investigating after two bodies were found inside a local business following gunshots and a fire.

A statement from the Mounties says they were called to the Adams Road area Wednesday afternoon after receiving a report of gunfire and a subsequent blaze at the building. 

They say officers found two bodies once they got inside, but offered no other details. 

The statement says police believe this is an isolated incident and the public is not at risk. 

It says investigators are working with the BC Coroners Service to determine the causes of death. 

Anyone with information is being asked to call the police or Crime Stoppers.
