Third shooting in four days in Surrey under investigation

Surrey RCMP are investigating reports of shots fired in the Newton area on Sunday night, the third shooting in Surrey in just four days.

According to a release, the latest incident took place in the 12200 Block of 78th Ave, at the intersection with 122 St, just before 9:05 pm.

Police say they found evidence of shots being fired at the scene, but no victims were found, nor any evidence any vehicle or homes had been hit.

Early investigations indicate a black SUV and a silver Acura car were seen fleeing the area, and that this was a targeted incident involving parties known to each other, say police.

Whalley shots also under investigation

The shooting follows another incident in the 12300 Block of Pattullo Place in the Whalley area of Surrey at about 11:30 pm on Friday night.

According to a release, police received several 911 calls saying shots had been fired in the area, which was backed up by evidence at the scene.

Again, no victims were found and early investigations revealed a black SUV was seen fleeing the scene of the shooting.

While police continue to canvass the neighbourhood, they say it looks like the incident was again a targeted shooting.
