RCMP in Langley is investigating after a man was found lying in a ditch with gunshot wounds over the weekend.

According to Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Largy, police were called to an area of 60th Avenue in Aldergrove at approximately 5:30 pm on Sunday for a report of a male suffering from gunshot wounds.

“The 50-year-old Langley man sustained non-life-threatening injuries and remains in hospital in stable condition,” Largy said in a release. “The victim is known to police, and the shooting is not believed to be random.”
