Halifax Regional Police are investigating shots fired between vehicles in Dartmouth earlier this month.

On January 16 at approximately 2:10 p.m. police received a report of shots fired between two vehicles travelling at a high rate of speed on Highway 111 toward Halifax near Burnside. The vehicles pulled alongside each, a handgun was pointed out of the driver’s window of the vehicle on the right and shots were fired, striking the vehicle on the left. Both vehicles were last seen on the MacKay Bridge travelling into Halifax.

The two vehicles are described as small black four door sedans, late 1990s to early 2000s models. It is believed that the vehicle being shot at would have damage to the rear passenger side of the vehicle.
