The Canadian Press, 04 Feb, 2019 06:06 PM

    BURNABY, B.C. — The RCMP say a man has been wounded in what they suspect was a targeted shooting in Burnaby, B.C.


    Investigators says officers dispatched to the corner of Smith Avenue and Price Street last night found a 39-year-old man who'd been shot.


    They say the man was taken to hospital in serious condition.


    Police say their initial investigation indicates it was a targeted shooting and that the general public is not at risk.


    They also say they're looking for a beige coloured sedan that was spotted leaving the area at about the same time.


    No other details were immediately released.
