VANCOUVER -- Police say Vancouver's eighth homicide of 2021 was targeted, but they're not yet saying whether the Friday night shooting was gang related. She stopped short of connecting the killing to the ongoing Lower Mainland gang conflict, however. "Investigators are still determining if it's part of the current gang conflict. “I heard the men shouting, they were shouting, ‘That was gun shots, that was gun shots,’” she told CTV News. Visintin acknowledged that this latest incident fits that pattern, and said the ongoing gang conflict in the region is troubling to police, and "retaliation is always a concern."
