Coquitlam RCMP responded to the city's fifth known shooting of 2022 at a Foster Avenue home before 5 p.m. on Aug. 1.

No one was hurt and an arrest has yet to be made following a shooting at a Coquitlam home over the long weekend.

RCMP are now turning to the public for help in potentially providing dashcam, CCTV or video footage of the incident as investigators try to determine the motive behind the incident.

Mounties responded to reports of shots fired before 5 p.m. on Monday (Aug. 1) at a residence in the 900-block Foster Avenue — near the northeast corner of Vancouver Golf Club.

Bullet holes were found in the exterior of the home, says spokesperson Const. Deanna Law in a news release sent to the Tri-City News.

Witnesses on social media claim they were in a window, adding police cleared the area around 7:30 p.m.

The case is in its early stages with Coquitlam RCMP’s Investigational Support Team (IST) at the helm of the city's fifth known shooting of the year.

"Police are working hard to determine the motive of this shooting, and information will be updated as the investigation progresses," adds Law.

"Residents in the area can expect to see police canvassing for CCTV footage and additional witnesses."

Anyone with more information or video of the incident is encouraged to call Coquitlam RCMP at 604-945-1550, anonymously contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or go online to www.solvecrime.ca.
