Police are investigating after gun shots were fired into a North Vancouver home on Sunday.

At around 4 a.m. on Aug. 24, a homeowner on the 900 block of Tollcross Road called police when they heard a loud bang and then discovered bullet holes.

Officers then attended the scene and found evidence that “several” shots had been fired at a residence on the street, according to a statement from North Vancouver RCMP.

The home was occupied at the time of the shooting, but no one was injured, police said.

This was an unsettling incident that understandably causes concern in the community, said Cpl. Mansoor Sahak, spokesperson for North Vancouver RCMP.

“The active investigation is ongoing and is being conducted by the North Vancouver RCMP Investigative Services Section,” he said. “At this time, the motive remains under investigation and there is no known threat to public safety.”

As the investigation is still in its early stages, Sahak said that police can’t say if the incident is connected to any other crimes or share any further information at this time.

Police are asking anyone with CCTV, dashcam footage, or information related to this incident to contact North Vancouver RCMP at 604-985-1311, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).
