The Abbotsford Police say between July 18 and July 27, there have been as many as 17 pellet gun attacks from a moving car at various locations around the city.
To date, four female pedestrians and five male pedestrians have been struck and injured.
Vehicles and homes have also been hit.
Police say the pellets have been shot from a vehicle by a man, believed to be between the ages of 18 and 25. The vehicle is described as a dark-coloured sedan and the incidents have taken place between 3 p.m. and midnight.
Originally, Abbotsford Police said there were 15 incidents. But since notifying the public about the attacks this morning, they have since had two new reports, each where property was believed to have been damaged by a pellet gun.
The incidents appear to be completely random.
