KAMLOOPS — RCMP say a high-visibility response to the Kamloops North Shore Thursday evening (Oct. 6) came due to a shots fired complaint.

In a news release issued Saturday, detachment spokesperson Cpl. Crystal Evelyn says officers responded to the 200-block of Tranquille Road at about 8:45 p.m. Thursday after receiving a report of shots fired.

Evelyn says officers identified a residence and suspect associated with the complaint. Police seized a vehicle from another location the next morning. She notes no one was injured in the incident.

“Based on the preliminary investigation, police believe the shooting was targeted toward a specific vehicle,” said Evelyn. “Evidence collection, including video canvassing, witness statements, vehicle seizure, and a search warrant execution, quickly followed the initial report and the investigation is progressing well.”

Any witnesses who may have further information related to the incident are asked to contact Kamloops RCMP at (250) 828-3000 and refer to file number 2022-35842.
