Two Edmonton Police Service patrol officers were killed while responding to a domestic dispute call early Thursday morning, the city's police service has confirmed.
A male suspect is also dead from what investigators believe is a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Multiple sources say the shooter was a teenage boy, but EPS has not confirmed that.
One person – a female who was related to the suspect – is in hospital with life-threatening injuries but was in stable condition as of 10 a.m. when Edmonton's police chief spoke about the incident for the first time.
Dale McFee called the deaths of two west-end patrol members an "unthinkable and horrific tragedy."
He identified the members as 35-year-old Const. Travis Jordan and 30-year-old Const. Brett Ryan.
Jordan had served with EPS for eight-and-a-half years, and Ryan five-and-a-half years.
