Shootings in the Okanagan

[Queen K]

First the guy on the bike in Westside.

Then the woman in Rutland.

Now? Burth Road, a very heavily used area. Guy off to KGH and perp burned his vehicle on Longhill Road. Did anyone see it?
Seems to be a favourite signature for shooters, burning the dna evidence of being in a vehicle suspected of being in a shooting. No one ever and I mean EVER sees anything too.

RCMP confirm a man has been shot in Kelowna, and witnesses report seeing a grey or silver car flee the scene.

Cpl. Jocelyn Noseworthy says in a press release police are investigating after a man was shot Monday afternoon.

Just after 12:30 p.m., RCMP responded to reports of numerous shots fired on the 1500 block of Harvey Avenue.

Officers flooded the area and located a man suffering from apparent gunshot wounds in a parking lot. He was rushed to hospital by ambulance.

After which there was a raid in West Kelowna of a house.

The shooting of the woman in Rutland was ruled unrelated to the Westside shooting.

But today's latest shooting comes fresh after this man was identified as the victim of the Trumpeter Court shooting last year. No suspects named.

Yikes, if you get shot every year, you should think of a different occupation.

[Queen K]

He's not the same victim as today's victim. Is he?

Oh, I read it wrong. No, good news - it's a different guy!

Victim was at Global Fitness driving a flashy expensive sportscar.

Absolutely going out on a limb here but I suspect it was a targeted shooting involving gangs/drug trade.

No need to go on a limb - it's pretty obvious your assessment is the correct one.
The known to police blurb is still missing though..

Odd that it was describe by the RCMP as happening "downtown".
Gold's Gym is definitely not downtown.

If by some chance they catch the shooter, what do you want to bet he has been locked up several times before? It seems like every violent crime is committed by someone who served a lenient sentence and was let go on time served or good behavior. What a joke! When someone commits serious crime they should have to do serious time! If you cause grievous bodily injury why do you get out in a fraction of the time it takes the victim to get past the trauma? Our justice system makes me sick and does nothing to back the officers who try to uphold the law. They are becoming apathetic towards smaller crime now and I can see why. The inmates are running the asylum and meting out the sentencing. This is just the beginning of what is to come. Criminals have been embolden because they know they can pretty much get away with anything.

You're right. The nearest Gold's gym is in Kamloops, followed by Vancouver. Gold's is a historic chain of gyms with a longstanding pedigree of being one of the best, while Global is local and owned by former dragons den judge/panelist, W. Brett Wilson.
I hope he has good lawyers and client base because this shooting may take a sizeable profit chunk in an already struggling industry.

What do you think he should be doing? What would you do?
