RCMP in Beaumont say the second shooting in as many weeks in the small city south of Edmonton is not linked to the first.
On May 27, police were called at around 7:45 p.m. to a report of a drive-by shooting outside a home in the Montrose Estates area.
Police were told a vehicle from Edmonton was travelling to Beaumont when the driver noticed a suspicious grey vehicle as they entered city limits.
The grey vehicle pulled up next to the victim’s vehicle as they pulled up to a house and shots were fired before the suspect vehicle drove off.
