For the second time in less than a week, Hamilton police say they are investigating a shooting incident in the city.
The latest allegedly took place in the city’s east end just before 9:30 p.m. on Tuesday near Adair Avenue South and Central Avenue.
“Upon arrival, officers immediately secured the area and searched for anyone involved; however, they had fled the scene,” police said in a release on Wednesday morning.
“Investigators have confirmed that a shooting took place.”
A number of residents reported the incident after alleging they heard “series of loud bangs.”
Police are still investigating an alleged targeted drive-by shooting last Thursday afternoon on the Lincoln Alexander Parkway.
A car window was damaged in that incident which happened sometime before 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 14.
Investigators believe both incidents are isolated and there were no injuries in either shooting.
