Edmonton police announced Thursday that they have evidence suggesting the gun used to kill two constables at an apartment building last week was also used in a shooting at a Pizza Hut near the residence days earlier.

“A bullet casing recovered from the scene of March 12, 2023 shooting at a nearby restaurant in the area of 133 Street and 114 Avenue has been forensically matched to the firearm that was recovered at the 132 Street and 114 Avenue apartment, where Const. Brett Ryan and Const. Travis Jordan were fatally shot on March 16, 2023,” police said in a news release Thursday.

The Pizza Hut shooting sent a man to hospital with serious injuries. Police said Thursday he remains there in critical condition.

The Edmonton Police Service held a news conference on Thursday afternoon to provide an update on the investigation. Deputy chief Devin Laforce said investigators continue to believe the suspect’s mother and father were not aware there was a gun in their home.

He added that it is still not clear what motivated the shootings, but “that’s definitely something we want to get into.”
