CALGARY- Calgary police are investigating after shots were fired into a house in the northeast community of Martindale early Saturday morning.

“That’s my older brother’s bedroom,” he said, referring to the two bullet holes near the upstairs bedroom window. He did not want to give his name.

“It could be random, I really don’t know right now.”
