As Prince George RCMP continue to search for those involved in a shooting Jan. 28 at West Lake, more information is being released on the suspects and vehicle being sought.

Police say the driver of the vehicle has a shaved head with a brown stubble beard and the passenger has slightly longer brown hair. Both are Caucasian.

The vehicle is described as a 1990s white van in need of washing that has no windows on the sides, rear door widows intact and with side doors that open outwards rather than sliding. The rear bumper is damaged on the passenger side and the van bears Alberta licence plates.

The two men are suspects in a report of a robbery and shots being fired on a West Lake rural property about 1:45 p.m. Friday. On the way to the scene, police did locate a man on Friday with a non-life threatening gun shot wound who was taken to University Hospital.

A motive for the shooting is not yet determined and there is no indication to suggest this is a gang-related attack. Police warn anyone spotting the van to call 9-1-1, but stay clear of the occupants who should be considered armed and dangerous.
