Monday, December 24, 2012 @ 10:24 AM
Vanderhoof, B.C.- There is still little information on the fatal shooting of an 18 year old Vanderhoof  female.
 
She was rushed to University Hospital of Northern B.C. last Thursday with a gunshot wound to the abdomen. She underwent emergency surgery, but  succumbed to her injuries.
 
North District RCMP Media Liaison, Constable Lesley Smith says “this was a tragic, isolated incident and  the public is not at risk.” She says officers are continuing their investigation.
 
As 250 News reported yesterday, the young woman’s body will be sent to Kamloops for an autopsy later this week. The young woman’s name has not been released.

Comments

My extreme condolences to the family at this time of year for their loss. No time is a good time for such a trajedy. So young and innocent just starting out in life. There are no words to make it better but my complete sympathy is offered in the healing time to come.
