One person was hurt in a shooting incident in Maple Ridge.
Ridge Meadows RCMP Const. Noelie Royant said officers responded to a report of a 鈥渟ingle gunshot鈥� fired in the 11400-block of 207th Street just before 3 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 11.
The injured person, a male, was taken to hospital with a 鈥渘on-life-threatening鈥� injury, Royant said.
More details were expected to be released Monday.
A witness to the incident, who asked to remain anonymous, told the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows News that after the sound of a shot was heard, at least four police cruisers and multiple officers could be observed at the scene.
People in the house were 鈥渃alled out into the lawn via [police] loudspeakers,鈥� the witness related.
Two were taken into custody at the scene, the witness noted.
鈥淚 asked one of the officers if it was a gunshot, and they said 鈥榶es鈥�,鈥� the witness added.
The witness said it was 鈥渘ot the first time鈥� police have been called to one of two houses that police were attending, that a recent fire at the same location had attracted RCMP interest.
