“This investigation provided a suspect vehicle based on the video obtained just before the shooting. It appears to be a dark coloured SUV with chrome rims,” said Brisco.

Police say there were no injuries related to this shooting, but there was property damage.

“The shooter is believed to have been in the dark SUV that we are trying to identify,” said Brisco.

Police say the incidents happened within 10 minutes of each other and seems to be similar in nature, however there is no evidence that would indicate the two residences are related.

“Investigators are attempting to determine motives in both shootings in order to see if they are related, but at this time they are being investigated separately,” said Brisco.

She said there are no suspects at this time.

“Evidence is being analyzed at the Centre of Forensic Sciences that may identify some suspects,” said Brisco.
