Local RCMP and the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team have been called to an area in Burnaby, B.C., where a man in his early 30s has been shot and killed.
Police said the shooting took place in the 6500-block of Portland Street around 8 p.m. Wednesday night.
They found the man deceased inside a vehicle.
The victim has now been identified as 32-year-old Chris Kenworthy.
It appears the incident was targeted, police said.
A 22-year-old man was killed in an apparent targeted shooting at a residential complex in Langley last week.
Investigators later identified the victim as Arshdeep Singh.
It was not clear if the shooting was connected to the recent Lower Mainland gang conflict.
