According to reports, at around 11 pm, gunshots were allegedly fired from an SUV in the 2500-block of McCallum Road in Abbotsford. No one was injured in the firing. Around seven rounds were fired.
Soon after this incident, a separate case of a vehicle fire was reported in the next block, about five kilometres from the shooting site, where an SUV was found engulfed in flames.

Police have not confirmed whether the vehicle involved in the shooting belonged to Ammy Virk's convoy. However, reports have claimed that the targeted vehicle was part of the convoy accompanying the singer after his concert.
