Recognize This Car? Vancouver Police Think It Was Used In Drive-By Shooting

Darpan News Desk, 27 Oct, 2017 01:14 PM

    The VPD is asking the public for information about a stolen silver Honda Civic, likely used in a drive-by shooting on August 29th.

     

    Just after 11:30 p.m. on August 29th, the VPD received 9-1-1 calls reporting the sound of gunshots in an East Vancouver neighbourhood. Investigators confirmed a residence near Rupert Street and Grandview Highway was the apparent target and no one was injured.

     

    Shortly after the reports of the shots fired, police received a call about an older model, two-door sliver Honda Civic with front-end damage driving west on Highway 1 onto the Hastings Street exit. Another 9-1-1 caller reported an abandoned Civic missing its front driver’s side tire just before Hastings Street on the Highway exit.

     

    Investigators have determined the Honda Civic was stolen and they believe it was possibly involved in the earlier shooting.
