Po­lice are in­ves­ti­gat­ing a mur­der which oc­curred in Pe­tit Val­ley on Thurs­day.

Ac­cord­ing to a po­lice re­port, around 10 am res­i­dents of School Street heard loud ex­plo­sions and then saw the body of a man ly­ing on the road­way.

He was shot to the head and chest.

He died on the scene.

Of­fi­cers of the Homi­cide Bu­reau and the West­ern Di­vi­sion are cur­rent­ly on the scene.

Po­lice has a pos­si­ble name of the vic­tim but are yet to con­firm the iden­ti­ty with rel­a­tives.

A mo­tive is yet to be de­ter­mined.
