VANCOUVER (NEWS 1130) – Vancouver Police are asking for any witnesses to come forward after shots were fired around Tyne Street and Kingsway just before 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday.

People phoned 911 saying they’d heard gunshots but investigators didn’t find anything but shell casings when they got to the home. No one was hurt and no suspects have been identified.

This is the eighth shooting of the year in Vancouver.

Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the VPD at 604.717.3012 or CrimeStoppers at 1.800.222.8477.
