Edmonton police have released more details about the events that led to the death of two officers.
Edmonton police released more details at a media conference on Friday about the events that led to the death of two officers.
Around 12:47 a.m. on Thursday, Const. Travis Jordan and Const. Brett Ryan responded to a family dispute call at an apartment complex near 114 Avenue and 132 Street.
When they arrived, police say they were met by a 55-year-old woman outside the complex.
The officers went to the suite where she lived with a 73-year-old man and their 16-year-old son.
Police say when they arrived outside the suite, both officers were shot multiple times by the teen, and were immediately incapacitated.
A struggle ensued between the woman and the teen over the firearm, and the boy shot his mother, before fatally shooting himself, police said.
The boy's father was in another room when the shooting happened, and was not injured.
