The RCMP say they are working to determine whether a shooting in Surrey last weekend that sent a man to hospital was a case of mistaken identity.
The break-and-enter and gunfire in the 5800-block of 129 Street on Oct. 3 left a 67-year-old man in critical condition with gunshot wounds, according to police.
The victim is not known to police and remains in critical, but stable condition, Surrey RCMP said Wednesday.
