One person in serious condition after shooting in southeast Calgary neighbourhood
Police say a single gunshot wounded a resident early Thursday morning in southeast Calgary. The investigation is ongoing.
At around 4:30 a.m. on Thursday, the quiet of a southeast Calgary neighbourhood was shattered by the crack of gunfire. Neighbours, still half‑asleep, reported hearing multiple shots before one, unmistakably, hit its target.
The Alberta RCMP arrived within minutes, cordoned off the area and rushed the victim to a nearby hospital. Doctors say the person is in serious condition, though they declined to give further details out of respect for privacy.
Detectives are now scouring the scene for evidence – shell casings, surveillance footage, anything that could point to a motive or a suspect. "We’re treating this as an isolated incident, but we’re keeping all options on the table," a spokesperson told reporters, hinting at the complexity of the case.
Residents, still shaken, expressed a mixture of fear and frustration. "We’re used to a certain level of safety here," one homeowner said, "and this just feels… wrong." Community leaders have urged anyone with information, no matter how small, to come forward.
As the investigation continues, police have asked the public to remain vigilant, especially during early‑morning hours when such incidents seem to catch everyone off guard. The case remains open, and authorities promise updates as more details emerge.
