Police continue to investigate shooting

​

Police are continuing to investigate a shooting that occurred earlier this week.

​

On June 22, at approximately 11 p.m., police responded to the area of Duke Street in Bedford near Damascus Road and Highway 102 in relation to a man who had been shot while inside a vehicle.

​

A 34-year-old-man was transported to hospital for what are believed to be non-life-threatening injuries from gunshot wounds.

​

Yesterday, officers received a report of a damaged vehicle in a parking lot of a business in the 0-100 block of Wright Avenue in Dartmouth. Haliburton Avenue was closed to traffic for a short time to allow officers to collect evidence.

Through the investigation it was determined that the vehicle had been struck as a result of shots fired in the area.

​

The investigations are in the early stages; however, investigators believe that the scene on Wright Avenue may be related to the call reported in Bedford.

​

Police are asking anyone with information about the incidents or video from the areas to call 902-490-5020. Anonymous tips can be sent to Crime Stoppers by calling toll-free 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), submitting a secure web tip at​ www.crimestoppers.ns.ca​ or using the P3 Tips App.
