Abbotsford – On Tuesday evening (@7:25PM), Abbotsford Police responded to the 31700 block of South Fraser Way for reports of shots fired.
Upon arrival, officers confirmed a shooting had occurred and that two vehicles involved had fled the scene. Shortly afterwards, police were called to a car fire a short distance away. It is subsequently believed that the burning vehicle was one of the vehicles involved in the shooting.
While AbbyPD officers were responding to both incidences, a report was received that a shooting victim had arrived at the hospital in a vehicle with noticeable gunshot damage. AbbyPD officers arrived at the hospital to find a South Asian male in his early 20’s suffering from non-life-threatening gunshot injuries.
The AbbyPD believes that this is a targeted shooting but the motive is unknown at this time.
