Hamilton Police are investigating two separate incidents involving the discharge of a pellet gun at members of the public. Both incidents occurred on Saturday, May 10, 2025, and appear to be random.
The first incident occurred at approximately 1:20 a.m. in the area of Albright Road and Nicklaus Drive in the City of Hamilton. A random bystander walking on the sidewalk was targeted with multiple pellet gun shots. The victim was not injured.
The second incident took place at approximately 5:50 p.m. in the area of Catalina Drive and Clapham Road in Hamilton, where multiple bystanders on the sidewalk were shot with a pellet gun. A 12-year-old victim was struck and transported to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
In both incidents, the suspects were observed driving a newer model, dark-coloured Ford Mustang with distinctive white racing stripes extending from the hood to the trunk.
Hamilton Police believe these acts were random and are urging residents in the affected areas to review any available surveillance or dash cam footage that may assist in the investigation.
