Several victims have been caught up in a mass shooting in British Columbia, according to Canadian police.
Officers in Langley, an area of Vancouver, said they responded to “multiple reports of shots fired with several victims and several different scenes throughout the City of Langley, and one scene in the Township of Langley”.
It is not known how many people were injured and if anyone had died.
Police said the shootings involved “transient victims”. Some reports said homeless people had been shot.
Members of the public were urged to stay away from a number of areas, including a casino car park and a bus stop.
A man is now in custody following the attacks.
In an alert sent to local residents, officers said the suspect was described as a white man wearing overalls and a camouflage T-shirt.
