B.C.91裸聊视频檚 top cop called the mass shooting in Langley Monday a 91裸聊视频渄espicable act91裸聊视频� but said British Columbians should still feel safe in the wake of several recent murders and gang shootings.

91裸聊视频淭his last month has been unsettling for British Columbians,91裸聊视频� said Mike Farnworth, Solicitor General and Minister of Public Safety.

Between midnight and 5:45 a.m. on Monday, a man shot four people, killing two of them, around downtown Langley City and Township. The suspect was killed by police near 200th Street and the Langley Bypass, shortly after the last of the four attacks.

91裸聊视频淭his senseless act of violence is very disturbing, and completely unacceptable,91裸聊视频� Farnworth said.

He said that while the motive behind the attacks remains unknown right now, police are investigating and it will be made public if discovered.

He thanked RCMP and other emergency responders who were active in Langley on Monday.

Farnworth said police and RCMP put themselves in the way of danger to make B.C. safe to live, work, and play in.

This was in the wake of a string of violent crimes, including a domestic double homicide in Chilliwack last week, a gang-linked double murder in Whistler, and the escape from prison of a man currently on trial for murder.

The Langley shootings resulted in only the second-ever use of the cellphone-based emergency alert system, sending loud noises and text warnings to thousands of British Columbians.

Farnworth was asked if the alerts were targeted enough, and why they went out just after the suspected shooter had been killed.

91裸聊视频淭he police were dealing with a very fluid and dynamic situation,91裸聊视频� Farnworth said.

Early alerts noted that police were not certain there was only one shooter, and made decisions based on the information they had. He added they learned from previous incidents in Vanderhoof, and in Nova Scotia.

Reviews are always undertaken after such incidents, including of how the emergency alert system was used, Farnworth said.

The possibility that the attack targeted the homeless is something investigators will be looking at, Farnworth said.

Asked why information about whether the shooter used legal or illegal firearms has not been released, even though he is dead and believed to have acted alone, Farnworth said he expected police would make it public later.

91裸聊视频淚 expect in due course that information will come out,91裸聊视频� Farnworth said.

Earlier, Premier John Horgan and Farnworth issued a joint statement about the shootings.
