An Abbotsford home that was shot up in a drive-by shooting Saturday night was occupied by a family with young children and likely mistakenly targeted, police say.

No one was injured in the shooting, which was reported just after 8:15 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 28 on Adair Avenue, near Exhibition Park.

Police say the occupants aren’t known to police and while a motive is not known, investigators think the wrong home was targeted.

Police are canvassing the area for witnesses and video.

Anyone who was in the area when the shooting occurred, or has video or other invormation is asked to contact Abbotsford Police’s major crime unit at 604-859-5225.
