According to witnesses at the scene of a drive by shooting in Prince Albert’s east hill area, a man was shot multiple times, prior to being seen walking towards the street, waving for help.

The man, who was wearing red, was covered in blood.

The incident happened Sunday evening in the area near Carlton Court plaza. The suspect vehicle, a black SUV, then continued northbound. Meanwhile the victim, a 31-year-old man, was transported to hospital in Saskatoon where he remained on Monday.
