DELTA – Delta Police say a 17-year-old student suffered “serious injuries” from what investigators believed to be a targeted shooting on Friday night. 

Police officers responded to the scene at about 8:20 p.m. on Friday near Delta’s Fred Gingell Park, where they found a 17-year-old youth with serious injuries. 

Police say a preliminary investigation found that the youth was part of a group of high school students from another Lower Mainland community in B.C., and they stopped at the park as part of a party bus celebration.

A newer model silver or grey Toyota Camry was seen fleeing the area following the shooting. 

The victim, who was not from Delta, B.C., is currently in stable condition after being taken to the hospital. 

Police say officers will be conducting door-to-door canvassing in the area close to the shooting. 

Police say they are looking for CCTV footage, witnesses and dash camera video to help with their investigation.
