Police officers in Edmonton say they shot and injured a man during a confrontation following an armed standoff at a local home.
Police say they responded to a report of an intoxicated 36-year-old man with a gun who was threatening to harm himself at a home on the city’s north side early Saturday.
Police say a negotiator tried to get the man to surrender peacefully, noting he emerged from the home at one point with both a firearm and an “edged weapon” before going back inside.
