Second Shooting At A Surrey Home Is Latest In Spate Of Violence

The Canadian Press, 15 Mar, 2015 04:42 PM

SURREY, B.C. — A Surrey, B.C., home that was targeted in a drive-by shooting early Sunday is the same house where shots were fired on Thursday.

RCMP say no one was injured in either incident at the home (in Whalley near 95th Avenue and 126th Street).

Mounties do not have a suspect or a vehicle description.

The incident marks the seventh shooting in Surrey in the past week, but RCMP say it's too early to link them all together.

RCMP say the shootings at the home are not thought to be connected to other recent gunfire in the city.

Mounties say the other shootings are believed to be related to the low-level drug trade. (CKNW)
