Police say there are no known injuries after a Yaletown business was peppered in a drive-by shooting Wednesday morning.
Police aren’t naming the business, but a spokesperson for Isabelle’s, a cocktail bar on Hamilton Street, confirmed the front of their establishment was struck by bullets.
A VPD cruiser was seen in the afternoon parked in front of Isabelle’s. A closer inspection of the bar’s exterior reveals small holes puncturing a plastic patio enclosure, an awning and a cracked windowpane. A number of the holes are marked with stickers bearing ruler-like markings or handwritten letters.
Police say the shooting took place just after 8 a.m. when the business was closed.
Police said the suspect or suspects are unknown, as is any motive.
“The investigation remains ongoing,” a police spokesperson said.
A spokesperson for the company that owns the bar said ownership only found out about the shooting hours after it happened.
He said they don’t have much information but are co-operating with the investigation.
