Six Nations police are investigating what may have been a drive-by shooting of a Six Nations police officer’s home over the weekend..
The incident comes on the heels of Six Nations police raiding a local home believed to have been the location of a “crack house.”
Police received a call Saturday just before midnight that a Sixth Linehome had been shot at. A 22 caliber bullet had been fired through the glass window of the front door. The bullet travelled through the living room and dining room area of the house before hitting a wall on the far side of the dining area. There were two adults and five children in the house at the time of the shooting.No one was injured.
The OPP canine unit and and Emergency Response Team were dispatched to the area, in the event the person responsible had fled on foot. Investigators recovered the slug. The incident is still under investigation. Police are asking anyone with information to contact Six Nations police at 519-445-2811 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS. Last week Six Nations police arrested and charged four local people in connection with a drug raid that saw drugs, cash and drug paraphernalia seized from a Chiefswood Road home.
Police Chief Glenn Lickers said “It is under investigation but we aren’t jumping to any conclusions, nothing that ties it to anything at this time.”
