    Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 01 Oct, 2020 08:23 PM
    • Two shot, one dead in targeted shooting in B.C.

    One man is dead and another was injured in a shooting late Wednesday in North Vancouver.

    Police say the two men were targeted in the shooting while sitting in a vehicle.

    Sgt. Frank Jang of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says they're releasing the name of the man who died, 43-year-old Ali Reza Serri, in an appeal to the public for any information that may help their investigation.

    The second man was treated in hospital for his injuries and released.

    Yellow police tape surrounded a duplex in a North Vancouver neighbourhood.

    But Jang says neither man lived there and police don't know why the men were at that location.
