The Canadian Press, 16 Jul, 2018 11:42 AM

SURREY, B.C. — A 35-year-old man is recovering in hospital from serious injuries following the latest targeted shooting in Surrey, B.C.

RCMP say the man was in a home in a Guildford neighbourhood at about 10:45 Sunday night when he was attacked.

Police say it was a "targeted, isolated occurrence," and there is no risk to public safety.

They have not released a possible motive for the shooting or if any suspects have been identified.

An investigation is continuing.

Thousands of Surrey residents rallied last month to protest recent targeted attacks in the city, including the murders of 16-year-old Jason Jhutty and 17-year-old Jesse Bhangal.
