A large police presence descended on a Richmond, B.C. neighbourhood Thursday evening amid reports of a possible shooting.
Police taped off an area near Blundell and Milner roads, and images from the scene showed what appeared to be a body beneath a yellow tarp.
Several neighbours said they heard what sounded like several popping sounds just before 6 p.m.
Multiple RCMP cruisers were on the scene and members of the Vancouver Police Department’s Gang Crime Unit were also observed.
A vehicle was also torched nearby, at the intersection of Blundell and Sidaway roads.
Police have yet to confirm any details about the deployment.
