Calgary police say a man killed in a drive-by shooting in the Beltline on Thursday night appears to be from out of town.
Police were called to the 600 block of 10 Avenue S.W. just after 9 p.m. for reports of gunshots.
The victim, 40-year-old Thane Cameron Clayton, was found dead at the scene.
In a late Friday update, the Calgary Police Service released Clayton's name after making next of kin notification.
Police say it's believed he was not from the Calgary area.
"He has ties to Vancouver, B.C., Edmonton, Alta. and Halifax, N.S.," police said in a news release.
CCTV footage from the area shows Clayton walking west on 10 Avenue S.W. toward Sixth Street S.W. when a dark-coloured SUV pulls up beside him and fires several shots before driving off.
