A man is in hospital with life-threatening injuries after a shooting incident in Abbotsford, B.C., Saturday night.

Officers were called to the 3400 block of Nightingale Drive just before 11 p.m., after witnesses reported hearing the sounds of two shots being fired and two vehicles fleeing the area, the Abbotsford Police Department said in a statement, Sunday.

Officers arrived to find “evidence consistent with a shooting” in a nearby parking lot, police said.

A vehicle was found by patrolling police in the 29980 block of Downes Road, and a man, suffering serious, life-threatening injuries, was found shortly after and transported to hospital.

Detectives are still working to determine the motive, yet early indications suggest the incident was targeted.

“There is no ongoing threat to public safety in either area,” police said.

AbbyPD are advising the public of a police presence in the area Sunday, as officers collect evidence.
