On Monday (Nov. 27) just before noon, Surrey RCMP received multiple reports of shots fired in the 13900-block of 18B Avenue. Police attended the area and located evidence consistent with a shooting, but no victim was located, according to a Surrey RCMP release.
The victim has since been located at a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
