No one was hurt following an early morning shooting at a residence in the Township of Puslinch.
At around 2:14 a.m. Monday, Wellington County Ontario Provincial Police responded to a weapons complaint after a shot was fired at a Wellington Road 36 address.
Police said someone shot at the home while the residents were asleep inside.
OPP is continuing to investigate. They said there is no threat to public safety as “this is not believed to be a random incident.”
Police are asking anyone in the area of Wellington Road 36 between Victoria Road South and Hwy. 6 to check their surveillance systems, dash cams or door cams for footage between 12 a.m. and 2:30 a.m.
“I always tell people, how would you feel if that was your residence? If you were inside sleeping and woken up by that type of environment? Obviously people are going to be very upset and we’re hoping somebody in that general area has any information or any type of cameras that may have captured the suspects or the vehicle that was involved,” OPP Sergeant Ed Sanchuk told CTV in an interview Monday night.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 1-888-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).
