Police investigating after multiple people reported home damage 'consistent with shots fired' in Cambridge
The Waterloo Regional Police Service (WRPS) is investigating reports of gunshots fired in a Cambridge neighbourhood.
Police were told that a home on Munch Avenue, near Sekura Street, was damaged around 7:45 a.m. Wednesday.
“It is accurate to say that multiple shots were fired into the residence. And as part of the investigation, we did determine that at least two other residences also received damage consistent with gunshots,” Cherri Greeno, WRPS director of corporate affairs, told CTV News.
Greeno said shots were fired into the front of the home and the rear of nearby residences.
“At this point, we do not know if this was targeted or if it was random,” she added.
Officers are expected to be in the area of Munch Avenue, between Hilldale Crescent and Harrison Drive, for most of the day.
“No arrests have been made at this time. We are in the area and will be conducting a canvass of the area, speaking to residents and anyone with information, we're asking them to provide that to us, as well as anyone with video surveillance,” Greeno said.
Some roads in the area may also be closed during parts of the investigation.
A suspect description is not available at this time.
Police are encouraging anyone with information or video surveillance to call 519-570-9777, extension 6370.
