Shooting closes down Vancouver's busy Robson Street

Visible bullet holes and flashing police lights were visible on Robson Street Saturday evening after officials shut down an entire block for several hours following what's believed to be a targeted shooting in downtown Vancouver.

Police got calls from multiple witnesses around 5:40 p.m. local time after shots were fired near Richards Street and Robson Street — a popular destination for shopping and dining, typically busy with pedestrians on weekends.

"Evidence indicates the shooting was targeted, and at this time there are no known injuries and no arrests have been made," said Vancouver police in a release.

At the centre of the scene, near the alley, was a black Jaguar SUV. Its front appears to have smashed into a white Audi SUV.
