Authorities believe a shooting that injured a young man in Prince George, B.C., over the weekend was targeted.
Prince George RCMP said officers found the 22-year-old victim after responding to a shooting near Quince Street and 20 Avenue around 12:30 a.m. Sunday.
On Tuesday, RCMP spokesperson Const. Jenna Moore said investigators do not believe there is “increased risk to the general public” following the shooting.
“The investigation is still in its early stages, but initial findings indicated this was likely a targeted event,” said Moore, in a news release.
“If anyone in the neighbourhood witnessed the event or saw something suspicious we ask that they please contact the Prince George RCMP.”
Authorities are also looking for video that could help their investigation, including dash-cam, cellphone or surveillance video taken in the area of the shooting between 11 p.m. Saturday and 1 a.m. Sunday.
