One person was injured in a Tuesday night shooting in the Hasty Market plaza parking lot near Fairview Park Mall in Kitchener.

Waterloo Regional Police said it happened around 9:40 p.m. at Wilson Avenue and Kingsway Drive.

They said there was one male victim, but he left the scene before officers arrived, and they don’t know how badly he was hurt.

The shooting left at least two bullet holes in the front glass of the Hasty Market, with the front door still wide open early Wednesday morning.

One bullet shattered a glass section in the door; another left a large hole in a front window.
