SURREY (NEWS1130) - Surrey RCMP confirm a man in his 20s was shot several times at a home near 127th Street and 67th Avenue at about 5:30 p.m. on Friday.

He was taken to a nearby hospital and police have taped off the area for their investigation. RCMP say the shooting does not appear to be gang-related, but it was likely targeted. Witnesses say a white Honda or Accura was seen leaving the area soon after the shots were fired.
