RCMP release photo of white car that could have a connection with P.E.I. shooting
Social Sharing RCMP have released a photo of a car they say "may be connected" to an incident in western P.E.I. that killed a man and injured a Summerside woman who later died in hospital. "The vehicle is a white 2007 Honda Accord, 4-door sedan, [and] could have had PEI licence plate 202NX," the police force said in a news release late Wednesday. The news release did not say whether the car is believed to be connected to the perpetrator or to a possible witness. RCMP are once more issuing an appeal for anyone with information about what happened around 8 p.m. Friday on Hackmatack Road in Urbainville, near Wellington, to come forward to talk to investigators. They have said a targeted shooting into a car on a dirt section of the road killed a 35-year-old man who was believed to be driving a 2008 Toyota Corolla, and led the car to roll over and hit a utility pole. The female passenger, 50, was seriously injured in the crash and later died. Police have said they believe another vehicle was on Hackmatack Road at the time, and a perpetrator fled the scene. No arrests have been made. "These incidents are uncommon in our province, and they are certainly unsettling. We take this very seriously and extensive police resources have been deployed to this investigation," Cpl. Gavin Moore, the media relations officer for the P.E.I. RCMP, said at a media briefing Monday. "Police do have many leads to investigate." RCMP have not identified either of the dead people. Police are asking anyone with information about the incident to contact Prince District RCMP at 902-853-9300 or 902-436-9300. People who want to stay anonymous are asked to call P.E.I. Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Social Sharing P.E.I. RCMP say their Underwater Recovery Team has been added to the investigation into an incident in western P.E.I. last week that killed a man and injured a Summerside woman, who later died in hospital. In a news release Friday morning, RCMP said the team was deployed Thursday to search waters around the Island, including lakes, ponds, streams, and coastal areas. The team is a specialized RCMP unit made up of police officers who are trained divers.

"We're using police dog services, drones and officers with boots on the ground to search the land areas, and now we are adding the ability to search lakes, ponds, streams and into the ocean if needed to find evidence that may contribute to this investigation," Peters was quoted as saying in the release. The incident occurred around 8 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 8, on Hackmatack Road in Urbainville, near Wellington. Police have said the targeted shooting into a car on a dirt section of the road killed a 35-year-old man, believed to be the driver of the 2008 Toyota Corolla.
