A 26-year-old man was taken to hospital where he was treated for an injury that was not a result of a gunshot wound.
Police believe other people left the scene before officers arrived.
This incident follows a number of shootings in Prince George, which police believe were targeted towards known individuals in the drug trade.

Although the motives for these incidents are still under investigation, they appear to be conflicts centered around illegal activities.

A strong focus will also be to deter and disrupt further violence, as well as apprehending those who are responsible. These violent acts are completely intolerable and all available police assets at the Prince George Municipal Detachment will be utilized to combat and target those involved.
