On Monday, September 2, 2024, at approximately 1:15 a.m., West Shore RCMP were called to the 3300 block of Ravenwood Road in Colwood for a report of gunshots and two vehicles on fire.
On arrival, police located two vehicles on fire and evidence that multiple shots had been fired at, and into, a residence. Occupants of the residence were evacuated by police and Colwood fire extinguished the vehicle fires quickly, preventing further fire damage to the residence.
Preliminary investigation suggests that this was a targeted event and there is no information to believe that the general public is at any further risk as a result. The RCMP investigation is ongoing. There are no further details available.
