      VANCOUVER — A man is in hospital following what police say was a targeted shooting in East Vancouver Friday night.
       
      Vancouver police say a 27-year-old man was found in the drivers seat of his car suffering a gunshot wound.
       
      He was found a few blocks away from where the incident occurred.
       
      Police say the man was taken to hospital in serious condition but he is expected to survive.
       
      The exact motive for the shooting has not yet been determined, but the evidence gathered at this time would indicate the shooting was targeted.
