On Wednesday, May 14th, 2025, around 11:30 p.m., frontline officers from the Vernon North Okanagan RCMP responded to a report of a shooting that took place on Okanagan Hills Boulevard in Vernon. The investigation has determined that the incident stemmed from an earlier assault that took place between a man and woman in a vehicle while parked at a pullout on the road. Following the altercation, a male suspect returned to the scene and allegedly fired a weapon several times. The suspect was later located and arrested safely and without further incident by police in the Falkland area.

The 33-year old man is currently in police custody and will be held until he makes his initial court appearance
