Police are investigating after two people in Brantford have reportedly been shot with a BB gun.

Investigators say that on July 7 at around 6 p.m., a 24-year-old woman was driving on Colborne Street near Brock Street with her window down.

That's when an "unknown object" struck her in the side of the face, a police news release reads. She stopped the car, and realized she was bleeding.

The woman then found a silver pellet inside her car, but she didn't need medical attention. Police officers searched the area, but came up empty.

Then on July 11 at around 11:30 p.m., a 31-year-old man and his friends were hanging out in a wooded area south of Mary Street. While they were talking, the man heard a pop, and then felt a sharp pain in his left ear, police say.

The group searched the area, but didn't find anyone. The man went to hospital and received treatment, police say.

Anyone with information about either incident is asked to contact Det. Const. Jason Sinning at 519-756-0113 ext. 2265, or Crime Stoppers.
