There has been more gunfire in Vernon.

Police responded to a call of shots fired at a home on Scott Road in the Okanagan Landing area at about 11:30 p.m. Sunday.

Const. Jocelyn Noseworthy said an examination of the scene confirmed the house was struck by bullets. An adult and a child were at home at the time of the incident. However, no one was hurt.

"Our investigative team is working to determine the motive for this house being targeted,” said Noseworthy, adding it is too early in the investigation to say if the attack was random or if the home was targeted.

Witnesses have told Castanet they heard several shots near the intersection of Scott and Palmer roads.

Scott Road connects with and parallels Tronson Road next to the Vernon airport and is an intermingling of homes and large fields.

The shooting is the latest in a spate of gunfire to plague the city,

Earlier this year, police responded to three calls of shots fired.

Members of the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of BC were called in to assist local police and a 16-year-old male was arrested. He had a loaded handgun in his possession when police found him.

At the time, police said in a press release the suspect is believed to be “involved in the Vernon conflict,” a reference to three shots fired incidents in the city in less than a month.

“In recent weeks there has been an escalation in violence related to the street-level drug trade in Vernon,” states the release.
