Nanaimo - Shots Fired


Townsite and Girvin
Late Night Shooting

The Nanaimo RCMP are investigating shots fired in the 400 block of Girvin Ave after neighbours reported hearing the gunfire shortly before 1 AM Wednesday morning. Residents on Girvin Ave and Townsite Rd heard several gunshots before two vehicles were seen fleeing the area. Vehicle descriptions were vague and cannot be confirmed at this time.

Police responded to the area locating evidence relating to the shooting. No one was injured during the shooting even though several rounds managed to hit a home on Townsite Rd. The motive for the shooting is not apparent at this preliminary stage of the investigation.


The investigation has been turned over to the Nanaimo RCMP Serious Crime Unit. If anyone has any information, please contact the Nanaimo RCMP at (250)754-2345.

  1. I am a resident in the house that took the shots.I just want it to be clear that myself and my family were victims of location and not involved in any way.The bullets were meant for the vehicles involved but any shots that missed the target ,hit our bedroom.The only reason I feel the need for clarification is that the article is quite vague in clearing our names of the incident.
