Halifax Regional Police are investigating a shooting incident late Saturday night in Dartmouth, N.S.
They say officers were on an unrelated call in the area just before midnight when they heard gunfire near Catherine St. and Lahey Rd.
The officers then found a man in a vehicle who told them he’d been delivering takeout food on Lahey when he was approached by three or four youths who shot at him, striking his vehicle multiple times before they ran off.
