A shooting in Surrey, B.C., over the weekend has sent a man to hospital with serious injuries in what police are calling an isolated incident.

Police say officers were at the scene overnight, canvassing the neighbourhood and speaking with witnesses.

Police are asking for the public in the area near where the shooting took place to check for dash cam footage, and those with information on the incident should contact police.
