3 gang members targeted in Surrey shooting

RCMP in Surrey, B.C., say several men with gang connections have been involved in a late night shooting. The apparently targeted attack occurred just before 11 p.m. Monday night outside a nightclub near Surrey's Guildford neighbourhood. Police say a man ran up to an SUV and fired several shots at two or three men inside, leaving one with a minor injury, possibly from flying glass or a graze wound from a bullet. The suspect then fled on foot and no arrests have been made. Mounties say all the men in the SUV have gang connections. But investigators say it is too early to know if the gunfire is linked to the slaying of Red Scorpions leader Jonathan Bacon and the injuring of at least four others, including two gang members, in a daylight shooting in Kelowna on Sunday.
