DELTA, B.C. — Police are investigating two shootings that happened hours apart in Delta, B.C.

Investigators believe Sunday's incidents are linked to other recent shootings.

Police responded to reports of gunfire just before 6 p.m. and found evidence of shots fired but no reported injuries or property damage.

Officers say witnesses saw a silver vehicle leaving an area in the municipality south of Vancouver.

About three hours later, police responded to reports of shots being fired at a home just blocks away.

Delta Police say no one was inside at the time, but a man who is known to police and used to live in the area is believed to have been targeted.
