GUILDFORD 鈥� A man is in serious but stable condition after a shooting in Guildford Tuesday night.
The victim had multiple gun shot wounds and was transported to a regional trauma centre, according to 性视界传媒 RCMP.
Corporal Scotty Schumann said the man, 29, was from Coquitlam and 鈥渒nown to police.鈥�
He鈥檚 expected to survive.
Though police arrested a suspect last night in relation to the shooing, Schumann said, but 鈥渉e鈥檚 been eliminated as a suspect so currently, we have no persons in custody.鈥�
Police are still trying to determine who the shooter was.
Bystanders said they believe that the shots came from a motorcyclist.
鈥淲e believe it was targeted,鈥� Schumann added. 鈥淐ertainly, the actions of the shooter lead one to believe that this was targeted. Every shooting in public I would categorize as brazen, whether it鈥檚 daytime or night time. It鈥檚 still a risk to the public.鈥�
The shooting took place shortly before 8:30 p.m. at the strip mall at the northwest corner of 148 Street and 108 Avenue in Guildford and witnesses said they heard half a dozen shots prior to the RCMP鈥檚 arrival. A bullet hole marred the glass front of a sushi restaurant with a 鈥榞rand opening鈥� sign still up.
