For the third time in just over a week, Waterloo Regional Police attended a daylight shooting in Kitchener on Tuesday.
Police say officers were called to the scene near Spadina Road West and North Drive at around 1:50 p.m. for the report of an injured man.
Upon arrival, they found a 36-year-old man from Kitchener suffering from gunshot wounds.
Police say the man was taken to an out-of-region hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
They described the suspects as three men in masks who were all wearing black clothing.
Police are still working to determine if this was a targeted incident.
On July 26, Waterloo Regional Police were called to Kinzie Avenue near Thaler Avenue for reports of gunfire.
There were no reports of any injuries but police did find evidence of gunfire during their investigation.
Just two days later, police were called to Ingleside Drive at around 2:40 p.m. for reports of gunfire.
Police said two men were taken to hospital afterwards, one with gunshot wounds.
On Thursday, police set the scene, saying two men were in a parked car when they were approached by the two suspects. An altercation then ensued where a gun was fired and two men allegedly took off in a stolen vehicle.
The stolen vehicle is then alleged to have struck a cruiser before the two suspects left on foot.
One was quickly tracked down while the other was found in a nearby park a short time later.
