Bear Creek park morning shooting lands one in hospital

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 05 May, 2023 10:47 AM

Surrey RCMP attend a shooting in the Bear Creek area that has sent one person to hospital.

R-C-M-P in Surrey say they're investigating a shooting this morning that sent a man to hospital with series injuries.

The Mounties say it happened in the driveway of a home in a neighbourhood not far from the intersection of 144th Street and 72nd Avenue.

Police say they were notified of a vehicle fire about half an hour after the shooting report and found the vehicle was similar in description to the one seen fleeing the area -- but further investigation is required to potentially link the two incidents.

They say the shooting appears to have been targeted.
