Homicide investigators have identified a man shot to death in Chilliwack Wednesday morning as Cody Isaacson, 28.
Mounties received calls of shots fired in the 9200-block of Broadway Street about 6 a.m.
“When officers arrived, they found a man with gunshot wounds who was then taken to hospital. Despite the best efforts of medical staff, the male victim succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead,” Cpl. Frank Jang, of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, said in a news release.
He said IHIT is working closely with its partners from the Chilliwack RCMP, the Integrated Forensic Identification Section and the B.C. Coroner’s Service to gather evidence.
“It is still early in the investigation but we believe Mr. Isaacson’s murder was targeted,” Jang said. “Mr. Isaacson was known to police.”

Isaacson has a 2014 conviction for possession for the purpose of trafficking in Prince George. He got a 442-day sentence and a 10-year firearms ban.
