One man was arrested and the investigation continues after two men were injured in a reported shooting Wednesday afternoon.
On June 26, 2024, at 3:01 p.m., the Quesnel RCMP received a report of someone suffering from a gunshot wound approximately 17 kilometres up the 1600 Forest Service Road. It was later determined that two men were suffering from non-life threatening injuries and that a third man was at the Wells RCMP Detachment with the intention of turning himself in. One man was arrested and has since been released pending further investigation. Both victims were transported to hospital.
While in the early stages of the investigation, this appears to be an isolated incident and there is nothing to indicate any active or ongoing threat to the public, said Staff Sergeant Richard Weseen of the Quesnel RCMP.
