RCMP said a 47-year-old is suffering from firearm-related injures after a shooting on Friday.

At 2 p.m., officers responded to a report of a shooting near Township Road 290 and Range Road 320 in Mountain View County, Alta., police said.

RCMP said a man was airlifted by STARS to hospital with unknown injuries.

In a Sunday news release, police said two men and a woman went to the property in a gold SUV to “settle a dispute over money and belongings,” adding that the victim and two other residents were there at the time.

“The discussion became heated and one of the males from the SUV shot the victim with a handgun,” RCMP said, adding that the victim was in hospital in stable, non-life-threatening condition on Sunday.

“As the suspects fled to the SUV, the shooter took additional shots at the other male resident on the property but did not strike him.”

Olds RCMP are asking for the public’s help in locating the suspect vehicle, which is described as a gold, older-model Infinity SUV with individual lights on the roof.
