Police are treating the discovery of shell casings near a Hamilton Mountain shopping plaza on the weekend as a “targeted” incident.
Investigators believe the shooting incident likely happened early Sunday morning after learning that a number of “loud bangs” were heard around 4 a.m. at 796 Concession St.
“Hamilton Police are asking area residents to check their surveillance cameras for any suspicious activity and to contact the detectives,” the service said in a statement on Tuesday morning.
Detectives say the casings weren’t actually discovered until after 8 a.m. following a call to police.
