According to the police, the shootings included “transient victims.” According to some stories, homeless individuals were shot.
Canadian police say three males, including the alleged shooter, were slain in a sequence of shootings in a Vancouver suburb.
Five different locations within the city of Langley and the township of Langley were attacked.
Four victims were shot by what was believed to be a lone assailant.
Two males were discovered dead, while another guy and a woman are in critical condition at the hospital.
The suspect was reportedly wounded when police spotted him, and he was shot and killed at the site.
Chief Superintendent Ghalib Bhayani of the area Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) department stated, “We are still investigating to ascertain if the shooter acted alone.
While the inquiry is still underway, all indications are that no one else was engaged and that there is no ongoing concern for public safety.
Authorities stated that “transient victims” were involved in the shootings. According to some stories, homeless individuals were shot.
However, Sergeant David Lee of the RCMP’s homicide investigation team stated that he was unable to confirm if the victims were homeless, and officers were still attempting to determine if they knew the shooter.
The police stated that they responded to “several reports of gunfire with many injuries and multiple separate scenes throughout the city of Langley and one scene in the township of Langley.”
The public was warned to avoid a variety of locations, including a casino parking lot and a bus stop.
The suspect was described as a Caucasian man wearing overalls and a camouflage T-shirt, according to an alert sent to residents by the police.
