An organization calling itself Port Moody Families Against Violence will be holding a rally outside of Port Moody city hall on Monday, Sept. 10, at 6:30 p.m.
The demonstration comes two days after the shooting of Joseph Allan Markel, a 32-year-old man who was gunned down outside his family's home in Glenayre Saturday morning.
The victim, who was well-known to police, was taken to Royal Columbian Hospital where he later died.
The incident is the third targeted shooting to take place in Port Moody this year.
In June, Randy Naicker, one of the founders of the Independent Soldiers, was shot to death outside the Starbucks on St. Johns Street. The week before, 35-year-old Gurbinder 'Bin' Toor was shot outside the Port Moody rec centre and later died in hospital.
More to come...
