Canadian authorities received a report of a drive-by shooting at a residential home in Dawson Creek , British Columbia, in the early hours of Friday, January 17th. RCMP officers responded to the scene in the 1100-block of 119 Avenue around 1 a.m. following reports of multiple gunshots fired at the house. Thankfully, no injuries were reported as a result of the initial shooting. According to the police, a suspect vehicle was observed fleeing the scene at a high rate of speed.
Officers quickly located and attempted to stop the vehicle, but the suspects opened fire on the officers. The RCMP officers then re-located the suspect vehicle unoccupied.
