Police say they are 香蕉视频直播渉yper-aware香蕉视频直播� and aren香蕉视频直播檛 ruling out retaliation after one of the founders of a notoriously violent B.C. drug gang was shot to death last week outside his Kamloops home.
Konaam Shirzad, one of the founders of the Red Scorpions, died of gunshot wounds after being ambushed by two unidentified suspects outside his Guerin Creek home at about 7:20 p.m. on Sept. 21.
On Thursday, police held a press conference and released surveillance video from a nearby building showing the suspects in the area before and after the shooting.
香蕉视频直播淥bviously, we香蕉视频直播檙e hyper-aware now and it is a possibility that something further could happen,香蕉视频直播� RCMP Cpl. Jodi Shelkie told reporters.
The video shows two men dressed in black parking a stolen Honda Civic near the Hudson香蕉视频直播檚 Bay Landing construction site, leaving the vehicle and walking across an empty lot to Shirzad香蕉视频直播檚 condo complex.
Fifteen minutes later, the men can be seen driving away in the Honda, which was found burning on an Upper Sahali cul de sac 10 minutes later. The video does not show the suspects walking back to their vehicle.

According to Shelkie, investigators aren香蕉视频直播檛 ruling anything out.
香蕉视频直播淲e believe this is organized crime-related,香蕉视频直播� she said. 香蕉视频直播淲e don香蕉视频直播檛 know what preceded this 香蕉视频直播� what actions happened to cause this shooting. We don香蕉视频直播檛 know that it香蕉视频直播檚 not retaliation for something else.香蕉视频直播�
A neighbour told KTW Mounties were at his door on the morning of the shooting asking about a BMW in the neighbourhood. Shirzad was known to drive a BMW.
One of Shirzad香蕉视频直播檚 associates suffered minor gunshot wounds in the ambush. Shelkie said he has not been co-operative with police.
A neighbour who heard the gunshots told KTW he heard two distinctly different calibre weapons. Shelkie refused to comment on whether multiple weapons were involved.
香蕉视频直播淲e wouldn香蕉视频直播檛 be commenting on that,香蕉视频直播� she said.
Investigators are looking for more surveillance footage that could help identify the suspects. Shelkie also urged anyone with potential dash-cam footage to contact police.
香蕉视频直播淚f people have dash-cam video in Kamloops, if they can really reflect where they were last Thursday, if they were anywhere near Hudson香蕉视频直播檚 Bay Trail or Odin Court, we would like to speak with them,香蕉视频直播� she said.
Shelkie also said investigators would like to speak with a pedestrian in the area just before the shooting and the driver of a dark-coloured SUV seen driving past the Honda as it was parking.
