Langley RCMP was called shortly after midnight this morning for a report of a male who had been shot. Officers attended and found the victim in an underground parking lot in the 5600 block of 201A Street.
The victim had sustained multiple gunshot wounds and was immediately transported to hospital with critical injuries.
Very little information was obtained from the victim, a 27-year-old Langley man, prior to being taken to surgery. The victim is known to police and this shooting is believed to be targeted. It is too early to definitively say this incident is linked to the Lower Mainland gang conflict.
