A statement from B.C. RCMP says that at approximately 10:15 a.m. on Sunday officers responded to a report of a disturbance at a residence on Kingsway Avenue.
Police say when they arrived a man approached them with “an edged weapon” and an officer fired their gun, striking the man.
The province’s Independent Investigations Office says in a separate statement that police were responding to a possible domestic dispute.
The IIO says the man who was shot sustained serious injuries and was transported to hospital.
It says it has launched an investigation.
