A 16-year-old has shot his mother and killed two police officers before taking his own life in Edmonton, Canada.
A police official and a senior government official said the male shot and wounded his mother on Thursday at an apartment in the city in Alberta province. Two patrol officers were shot and killed upon arriving at the scene.
Dale McFee, the Edmonton police service chief, said the suspected gunman died by shooting himself. A woman was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries, where she remained in a serious but stable condition.
