A Langley man is recovering in hospital after being shot during a home invasion in Aldergrove Wednesday.
RCMP say just before 7:30 p.m., multiple suspects arrived at the home near 266th Street and 29th Avenue and forced their way inside.
Police say that’s when the 27-year-old occupant was shot. The suspects then fled.
The victim’s injuries do not appear to be life-threatening.
Police say it appears the incident was not random and the residence was targeted.
The force’s Serious Crimes Unit took conduct of the investigation and much of the road was blocked off as police gathered there. It has since reopened.
In another incident Wednesday, eight people were arrested after multiple search warrants were executed in Surrey and Langley in connection with an alleged drug trafficking operation.
It is not clear if these two incidents are related.
