Police set up a containment area and when officers asked people inside a home to come out, a woman left while a man allegedly did not immediately exit.
When the man came out, police say he allegedly refused to follow their directions and shots were fired from a “less-lethal shotgun,” striking him.
Police say they have determined the initial disturbance call, including the allegation that a firearm was seen, were false and “no such incident occurred.”
The RCMP say they are pursuing a public mischief investigation, and B.C.’s police watchdog is investigating after the man suffered serious but non-life threatening injuries.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published on June 24, 2020.
