Calgary police are asking for the public’s help identifying suspects in a shooting that occurred in the northeast community of Redstone in late January.
On Saturday, Jan. 24, 2026, at approximately 11:30 p.m., police say, two masked men approached a residence in the 100 block of Redstone Common N.E. and fired gunshots into the unoccupied building.
They were then seen fleeing the area by running across a field, before they were picked up by a dark-coloured sedan, believed to be a 2003 to 2008 Toyota Corolla with black rims.
Nobody was injured in the incident.

Investigators believe it was a targeted shooting that has ties to the ongoing extortion series targeting members of the South Asian community.
Police have also released a photo of the sedan involved, taken from CCTV footage, in hopes someone from the public might have information that will help identify the suspects.
Since the beginning of 2025, police say there have been 21 extortions attempts, including 11 shootings, that have been reported to them and are believed linked to threats against the South Asian community.
Anyone with information about this incident, or the extortion attempts, that may be of interest to investigators, is asked to call Calgary police at 403-266-1234.
