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.
