Pretty sure they know the whole neighborhood is a witness given how many squad cars were there.

Shouldn't you guys be evacuated outside the house? Considering you're a couple meters away from some pretty big guns

LOL pretty sure if the police needed people to "evacuate" their houses they would've instructed them to do so.

Don't think invader is gonna be sitting there taking pictures for his "Revscene Family" when he knows his actual family might be at risk.

Generally, if the SWAT team comes to one of your neighbour's houses, you were expecting them to come by. Very rarely will it be a surprise that a SWAT team comes and storms your neighbours house and you have NO idea what is going on.

Mounties have cordoned off the front of a sushi restaurant in Richmond, B.C. after an apparent drive-by shooting Thursday.

Few details have been confirmed, but marked and unmarked police cruisers have surrounded Manzo Japanese Restaurant at Capstan Way and Garden City Road.

A black sedan has been left with its front doors open in the parking lot.

There is no word yet on injuries.

Teenager found shot in Richmond restaurant parking lot - News1130

Quote:
RICHMOND (NEWS1130) - A Japanese restaurant at a strip mall in Richmond is now a crime scene.

Police are trying to piece together why an 18-year-old man would have been shot in the restaurant parking lot at Capstan Way and Garden City late yesterday afternoon.

The man was found by paramedics and police in front of Manzo, a Japanese restaurant in the strip mall around dinner time. He'd been shot in the leg by suspects who got away in a vehicle.

Police say the teenager is known to them.

The restaurant is flanked by other eating establishments and shops, but people working in the other businesses didn't hear any gunshots.

An employee of the insurance office just to the south of the restaurant says she was alerted to something happening when a colleague said she saw a man lying in the parking lot.

"We went out and there was a woman holding onto a man on the ground, in front of the Manzo restaurant and then we heard the cops," she says.

She is somewhat concerned, considering the shooting happened when businesses were still open. "A customer of ours told me he had heard about a similar event a couple of days ago.... another gunshot."

"We're worrying. It's getting really bad in this area," says her co-worker.

Shooting at a Burnaby Hotel "Executive"

Quote:
METRO VANCOUVER -- A shooting in Burnaby has left a hotel cordoned off and, according to initial reports, at least one person is dead.

Witnesses say they heard several gunshots and can see shattered glass around the front entrance of the Executive Hotel and Conference Centre on the Lougheed Highway.

Click here to see more photos of the shooting

Around noon on Monday, Chris Hashimoto was just getting out of bed at his condo on Halifax Street, adjacent to the hotel, when he heard the sound of gunshots.

"I thought it was construction happening across the street. It sounded like heavy machinery the first couple of times, and after the few shots, the rapid succession, I thought no - that sounded like gunfire," he said from his balcony overlooking the scene.

He said police cruisers, a fire truck and two ambulances were visible, as well as shattered glass surrounding the front entrance of the hotel.

RCMP Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokeswoman for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, confirmed she was heading to the scene but the number of victims or suspects was not immediately known.

More details on the Burnaby shooting:
Quote:
BURNABY (NEWS1130) - Two people have been killed in a shooting in Burnaby today.

There's a heavy police presence near Lougheed and Madison in Burnaby; News1130 has learned one of the men shot today was Sukh Dhak. His brother Gurmit Singh Dhak was shot dead at Metrotown shopping centre in October 2010.

The other man shot may have been his body guard.

News1130's Anita Bathe says she could see one body laying in the front doorway to the hotel, and another further into the lobby of the Executive Hotel.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team is handling the case, and it confirms this was a targeted attack.

Don lives nearby and heard some sort of commotion at about 11:45 a.m. "It sounded like a whole bunch of wood falling down from a building... I thought it was like a scaffolding coming down or something."

I was just sitting behind and slightly to the left of Mr. Dhak the other day taking notes on his trial for my term paper. From the news, I didn't think it was him at first because he is supposed to still be on trial, a five week affair in a high security court room. Interestingly, he manages to get killed on the day he doesn't have to be in Court because of an adjournment.
