      RCMP Mounties say someone opened fired on a home in the 1700-block of King George Boulevard around 3:30 a.m.
       
      Neighbours say they flew out of bed when they heard the gunshots, which sounded “like explosions.” 
       
      Just hours earlier a brawl broke out at the same house party. 
       
       
      Neighbours say a car was being driven erratically, smashing repeatedly into a gate.
