Four people, including two police officers, were killed in a shooting in the eastern Canadian city of Fredericton and one person who is "currently being treated for serious injuries" was taken into custody, local police announced.
There is no further threat to the public, and lockdowns are not required, says local police.
"Awful news coming out of Fredericton," Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Twitter. "My heart goes out to everyone affected by this morning’s shooting. We’re following the situation closely," he added.
An investigation into the incident is currently underway.
