Surrey RCMP say a 28-year-old woman was shot in the leg just after 4 a.m. this morning.

The incident happened outside a convenience store at 80th Ave. and King George Blvd.

Police say a dark-coloured SUV pulled into the convenience store parking lot. The driver and the woman got into some sort of verbal exchange.

The woman walked away from the store to a nearby trailer park, but she was followed by the SUV.

The exchange continued at the trailer park, and the woman was shot once in the lower leg. The SUV fled the scene on King George Blvd.
