Vancouver Science World Police Shooting – photo by Torry Courte

This photo was taken during a police shooting incident at Vancouver’s Telus World of Science, on June 10, 2014. After the initial sirens, the area was flooded by officers and what appeared to be heavily armed swat team members.

According to news reports, the incident started with a shooting in Yaletown outside of the Starbucks at Davie. One of the suspects had fled on a bicycle and was persued to Science World, where there was a shootout with VPD police officers. The reports stated that thankfully the officer received only minor injuries. The suspect was also shot and taken to hospital.

I was able to take more photos of this incident, as well as video footage. I will be posting more as I process the footage.
