As displays of grief grow in Edmonton, a day after two city police officers were shot and killed on the job, a town in Nova Scotia’s Annapolis Valley is also hurting.
As displays of grief grow in Edmonton, a day after two city police officers were shot and killed on the job, a town in Nova Scotia’s Annapolis Valley is also hurting.
Const. Travis Jordan, one of the officers killed, grew up in Coldbrook, N.S.
His friends say they are in disbelief, after talking to him only hours before his death.
“He was senselessly killed in the line of duty,” said Brodie Sampson. “Travis was the most dedicated husband, the most loyal friend, [and a] wonderful son to his parents.”
They say Jordan was the glue that held their friend group together.
“He was the most personable person you could ever meet,” said Paul Cyr. “The guy would give you his shirt off his back. It’s unfortunate that not everyone could’ve known him.”
Jordan graduated from Central Kings High School and pursued his dream of becoming a police officer. He and his wife Annie moved to Edmonton more than eight years ago.
