MONCTON — A woman is in hospital with life‑threatening injuries after being shot Saturday night at a home on Marsh Street, New Brunswick RCMP said.

Police were called to the Marsh Street address at about 10:20 p.m. and found the injured woman inside the residence, Const. Nick Angeli‑Grou of the Codiac RCMP said in a statement. At this time, investigators said no arrests have been made.

RCMP have said there is no threat to the public because those involved were known to each other.

Police message to the community

While investigators continue their work at the scene, police emphasised the incident does not represent an ongoing danger to the wider community. Officers said the people involved were acquainted, and there is no broader threat to Moncton residents.

Authorities are asking anyone with information to contact Codiac RCMP or Crime Stoppers. No further details about the victim or any possible suspects have been released.

Community concern and next steps

Incidents involving firearms are relatively rare in many New Brunswick neighbourhoods, and reports of a shooting often prompt heightened concern among neighbours. RCMP did not release further information about a possible motive, the identities of those involved, or whether firearms were recovered.

Investigators typically canvass neighbourhoods, seek surveillance footage and interview witnesses after such events. Police asked anyone who may have observed anything out of the ordinary on Marsh Street on Saturday evening to come forward. Those requests are particularly important if residents saw vehicles arriving or leaving the area, heard gunfire or saw people on foot around the time of the call.

  • Police confirmed the call came in at about 10:20 p.m. on Saturday.
  • The victim was transported to hospital with life‑threatening injuries.
  • RCMP say no arrests have been made and there is no ongoing threat to the public.

How to help investigations

RCMP asked anyone with information to contact the Codiac RCMP detachment or to provide an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers. Authorities often rely on community tips, photos or video to corroborate timelines and identify potential witnesses.

As the investigation moves forward, more detailed updates may be provided by the Codiac RCMP or through official media releases. Local residents who have immediate concerns about safety or who possess relevant information are encouraged to reach out to police.

This report will be updated as additional, verified information becomes available from investigators and emergency responders.
