No one has been arrested, but investigators say this was a targeted attack.

They say there is no indication that the public is at risk.

Prince Rupert RCMP are asking anyone that may have information regarding this incident to contact the Prince Rupert RCMP Detachment at 250-627-0700 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
