At 7:39 p.m. Sunday, they received multiple 911 calls about a possible shooting in the parking lot near a number of fast-food restaurants in the 12900-block of 96 Avenue.

When officers arrived, witnesses said they saw an argument between two groups of men, which escalated into the use of pepper spray and then shots were fired.

The men left the area in two separate vehicles before police arrived, witnesses said.

RCMP said they did not find anyone who was injured or any evidence of a shooting but the investigation is still underway.
