Four people have died after a shooting at a Richmond, B.C., duplex and homicide investigators were called to the scene.
A duplex on Garden City Road, just north of Alderbridge Way, was behind police tape Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. The road was shut down for several hours while officers canvassed the scene but it has since reopened.
Investigators said four people were found dead, adding they were victims of a shooting. Officers said it's believed this was a targeted shooting that wasn't connected to the ongoing Lower Mainland conflict. All the victims are believed to have known each other.
"It is a traumatic incident the community is waking up to,” said Sgt. David Lee in a news release. "Our investigators are scouring the area looking for information as this event unfolds. We hope to provide the community with answers soon.”
Police said they expect to be on scene for much of the day Wednesday.
