RCMP are advising the public that the area is slick and dangerous, and it is best to avoid that part of town.

There are also several police cruisers and a police dog investigating a residential area nearby off of Cairndale Rd.

Witnesses tell Victoria Buzz officers are focusing on one area of the street. We have reached out to RCMP for confirmation the two incidents are related.
