Police are releasing an image of a vehicle from a targeted shooting that took place in Fraser Heights earlier this week.

The shooting happened at about 4:50 p.m. on Sept. 3 in the 15900 block of 111th Avenue, which is in the Surrey’s Fraser Heights residential area.

Officers arrived at the scene to find two men suffering from apparently gunshot wounds. Both were taken to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

A day later, police took the step of publicly identifying one of the two shooting victims as Thomas Gabriel Saul, a 35-year-old New Westminster resident.

Police warned the public against associating with him as it was the second time in recent weeks Saul had been targeted in a shooting and he had not been cooperative in speaking with police.

On Thursday, police then released a home surveillance camera image of a black Dodge Journey believed to have been involved in Tuesday’s shooting.

Anyone who recognizes the vehicle or who has information about the shooting is asked to contact police at 604-599-0502.
