Police are turning to the public for help solving a series of targeted shootings in Chilliwack.

There were three reports of shots fired at residences in the past two weeks.

“Fortunately no one was injured in any of the incidents. RCMP are turning to the public for information regarding the shootings,” said RCMP Cpl. Mike Rail of the Upper Fraser Valley RCMP detachment.

Police investigators say the shootings were linked and targeted certain individuals.

The first incident was a report of a shotgun fired at a home in the 9900-block of Quarry Road before dawn on Christmas Eve day.

Two days later a similar report was made but this time it was suspect who yelled as a shotgun was fired at a house in the 9400 block of Hazel Street.

Then on Jan. 2 at about 7 a.m. a 911 caller told police that a shotgun had been fired at a home in the 45000 block of Rowat Avenue.

No suspects were found.

"Chilliwack Serious Crime Unit supported by Crime Reduction Unit, General Investigation Support Team, and the Integrated Forensic Identification Section are pursuing all avenues to identify the suspect as part of their ongoing investigation."

Anyone with information is asked to contact Chilliwack RCMP at 604-792-4611 or anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).
