Mounties are releasing little information about what they are calling a "targeted shooting" in downtown Chilliwack early Thursday morning.

RCMP responded to a complaint of shots fired near the intersection of Cleveland Avenue and Fletcher Street around 3:30 a.m.

There were no serious injuries, police say. Asked by the Times whether there were any injuries at all, RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Tammy Hollingsworth said: "very minor."

The intersection was blocked off with police tape for several hours Thursday morning.

"The investigation is ongoing and further information will not be provided, at this stage, in order to protect the integrity of the investigation," Hollingsworth said in a press release.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Chilliwack RCMP at 604-792-4611.
