Two police officers in Edmonton have been shot and killed.
The city's police service says the officers died while responding to a call early this morning in central Edmonton.
The officers have been identified as Constable Travis Jordan, 35, and Constable Brett Ryan, 30.
Officials say just before 1:00 a.m., the officers were called to a family dispute in an apartment building.
They were shot as they approached the suite.
Police say the male suspect is also deceased, and investigators believe he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
A female complainant related to the suspect, was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries.
She is said to be in serious but stable condition.
Meanwhile, tributes to the officers are pouring in from across the country, including from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Every day, police officers put themselves in harm’s way to keep people safe. The news that two @EdmontonPolice officers have been killed in the line of duty reminds us of that reality. I’m sending my condolences to the officers’ loved ones and colleagues – we’re here for you.
