“We are extremely lucky that no one was injured during this brazen day-time shooting in a very populated area,” Coquitlam RCMP Officer in Charge, Supt. Keith Bramhill, said in a media release.
“As we are in the initial stages of the investigation, we are asking anyone who may have witnessed the shooting or saw a man pointing a firearm in the area of Johnson Street and Glen Drive to contact police.”
