Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 31 Oct, 2023 04:58 PM

Police say they're investigating after two men were shot at outside Gallery nightclub in south Vancouver early Sunday morning.

They say officers responded to reports of gunfire and found a 44-year-old man with a gunshot wound to his arm, while the other man wasn't injured.

Vancouver police say investigators believe the men were standing outside the club when a suspect walked up and fired multiple shots, then took off in a vehicle.

A statement from Sergeant Steve Addison says people shouldn't have to worry about being in the crossfire of gang violence and anyone with information about the incident around 1:50 a-m Sunday is asked to call police.
