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.
The West Shore RCMP are asking any motorists with vehicle cameras in the area of Veteran’s Memorial Parkway from Sooke Road to Bear Mountain Parkway between midnight and 1:30 a.m. to on Monday, September 2, 2024, to call them at 250- 474-2264.
