Const. Caroline de Kloet says officers were called to the downtown building shortly before 3 a.m. for the sound of gunshots.
She alleges shots were fired through a wall into an adjacent unit.

Canadian Press journalist Lucas Timmons says he was asleep when he heard what sounded like a door slamming.
He says he got up after hearing a second loud bang and then found bullet holes through a picture frame and through his drier, with a bullet on the floor.
Timmons says he believes the shots came from a unit that is used as a short-term rental.
Luckily I wasn't doing laundry at the time or I'd be dead.
