Police are searching for a truck they believe to have been in the area of a targeted shooting on Thursday evening in south Edmonton.

The Edmonton Police Service (EPS) responded to a shooting in the area of 23 Avenue and 106 Street Thursday after 9 p.m. Two men were injured in the incident and transported to hospital where one in their 20s ultimately died.

In a release sent Sunday, homicide detectives say they believe a black truck, possibly a Dodge Ram, was near the area at the time of the shooting and could be linked to the incident. Investigators are hopeful someone may have information about the vehicle.
