According to a neighbour who lives on Windsor Street, the shooting happened sometime around 6 p.m. Tuesday evening. The neighbour, who did not offer his name, said he was in his bathroom when he heard the distinct sound of three to four gun shots.

Multiple RCMP units immediately responded to the 9700 block of Windsor Street and blocked off the surrounding streets, including Yale Road and Menzies Street, the neighbour indicated.

When asked who inhabited the residence, the neighbour described the couple as a male and female in their 30s and suspected narcotics were being sold. He said he could hear what he called excessive “racket” at 4 a.m. coming from the house one recent morning, and reported that the landlord had been trying to evict the younger couple.

The neighbour said immediately following the gunshots that he heard, there were no vehicles or individuals that fled the scene. He said a red Pontiac vehicle belonged to the home, but a second vehicle, a truck, was not necessarily associated with the residence where the alleged shooting occurred. The red Pontiac-type vehicle could still be seen in front of the home Tuesday night.

Yellow caution tape could be seen surrounding the property at 7:25 p.m. Tuesday evening. At that point in the evening, traffic was allowed to drive northbound and southbound on Windsor Street.
