The driver of an SUV crashed into a sound barrier along 16 Avenue on Thursday evening and when police arrived, they found they'd been shot multiple times.
Calgary police are investigating a Thursday evening shooting in the city's northeast.
Police were called to 16 Avenue and 36 Street N.E. around 7 p.m.
A GMC Envoy crashed into a tree before ramming through the sound barrier lining homes in the community of Rundle, police said.
Officers said the male driver was still in the vehicle when they arrived and had been shot multiple times.
He was taken to Foothills Medical Centre in life-threatening condition.
