    The Canadian Press, 19 Oct, 2018 10:24 AM

      VANCOUVER — Police in Abbotsford, B.C., say a man is dead after what they believe was a targeted shooting Thursday evening.

       

      A department spokeswoman says in a news release, police responded to reports of shots fired at the CIBC bank in the 32000-block of South Fraser Way about 6:43 p.m..

       

      Sgt. Judy Bird says police found a dead male in the area, and the investigation is in the early stages.

       
       
       
       

      “Upon arrival, officers located a deceased male,” she said. “We are in the early stages of this investigation; however, the initial indications suggest this appears to be a targeted incident.”

       

      The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team tweeted that investigators are on the scene.
