North Vancouver RCMP are looking for witnesses after a violent home invasion in the Grousewoods neighbourhood early Tuesday morning.

Police received a 9-1-1 call around 7 a.m. Tuesday reporting the home invasion on the 5000-block of Molina Crescent.

"Although we are in the initial stages of the investigation, we can state at this time, this was a targeted home invasion," said. Cpl. Richard De Jong North Vancouver RC MP spokesman.

"The four suspects fled the residence prior to police arrival. The two victims received minor injuries during the incident."

Police searched the area and found a shotgun, a pistol and a balaclava.

RC MP later received a search warrant for the home and found an undisclosed amount of drugs and money, though the residents were not known to police, De Jong said.

Investigators are hoping a tip from the public can help lead them to suspects in the home invasion.

"There would have been noises, squealing tires, suspect vehicles, descriptions of people in vehicles, maybe - anything that alerted someone to the incident at that time in the morning," he said.

Anyone with information that might tie to the early morning home invasion is asked to call the RC MP at 604-985-1311 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 where anonymity is possible.
