One man is recovering from a gunshot wound in Surrey after what police believe was an early morning dispute between several people who know each other.
Surrey RCMP say officers were called to a disturbance in a home in the Whalley neighbourhood at about 8:30 a.m., and found two men, one with a non-life-threatening bullet wound, trying to leave the area.
The victim was hospitalized and police have since determined a third man left before they arrived, but where he went, what caused the dispute and where, or when, the injured man was shot are all unknown.
Police say they don't believe there's any ongoing risk to safety but urge the public to remain vigilant and report anything suspicious.
