BC's police watchdog is investigating after a woman suffered multiple gunshot wounds in Ucluelet.

RCMP were called to a home late Saturday afternoon after a report of a disturbance and a man needing medical assistance.

They say they encountered a woman with a weapon when they entered the home.

The Independent Investigations Office of BC says the woman sustained serious injuries after police fired shots.

It says both the man and woman were taken to hospital.
