“There were cops out there with guns,” said one neighbour. “Somebody had a bad day, went a little crazy.”
Police say the neighbourhood is well-known to them for criminal activity.
“It’s an area that we frequent. I wouldn’t say it’s unsafe, it’s just an area that right now seems to be more on the radar than others,” said RCMP Cst. Kelly Brett.
Investigators believe the shooting was targetted and the public is not at risk. They’re not saying if they have any suspects or a motive.
The 49-year-old victim remains in hospital in critical but stable condition.
