One man remains in hospital and a suspect is on the loose after a shooting in Nanaimo Saturday night, according to authorities.

Officers were called to a home on Corunna Boulevard in downtown Nanaimo around 6 p.m., where the victim was found with “apparent gunshot wounds,” a Nanaimo RCMP spokesperson told CTV News, adding that the man is in stable condition.

The suspect fled the scene and has not been located, but police say the shooting was targeted and there is no risk to the public.

Anyone with information who has not yet spoken to police is urged to call the Nanaimo RCMP at 250-754-2345.
