Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 29 Apr, 2019 08:53 PM

    SURREY, B.C. — Mounties say a man is dead following a shooting that is believed to be targeted in Surrey, B.C.


    RCMP say in a news release they responded to multiple reports from the public of shots fired just after 5 p.m. Friday.


    The release says officers located a man suffering from gun shot injuries in Surrey's Fraser Heights neighbourhood.


    Mounties say the man was subsequently pronounced deceased and investigators have not yet identified the victim.


    Investigators have not been able to establish if the homicide is related to gang activity or any other homicide, but say the incident appears to be targeted.


    The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team has been called and is set to take conduct of the investigation.
