Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) are investigating after homes and vehicles in two small southwestern Ontario communities were damaged by bullets.
Both shootings occurred overnight, and the damage wasn’t noticed until the following morning, police said. No injuries were reported in either case.
“It seems that what was being targeted were the vehicles in the driveway and the garage area of the home,” OPP Const. Patti Cote told CTV Kitchener on Monday.
Investigators have not determined if the same people are responsible for both shootings, but the suspects in both cases were driving a light-coloured pickup truck.
The first shooting happened on March 6 on Fennel Street in Plattsville. The homeowner, whose residence and vehicles were hit, told CTV News he had not idea why his house was targeted.
He said four people were inside the home sleeping when the shots were fired.
At the time, police said there were “no concerns for public safety.”
