The New Westminster Police Department say they are looking into a report from a driver who says another driver shot his vehicle multiple times Wednesday afternoon.

Police say a man reported that the driver of a black, two door Infiniti vehicle shouted at him before pointing a gun and shooting numerous times, resulting in a broken passenger side window.

Police say their investigation has indicated the weapon may have been a pellet gun.

They are asking the public to come forward with any information or dashcam footage related to the incident.
