Correctional Service Canada (CSC) says two officers and an offender were killed in an accident during a transfer from the Edmonton Institution for Women.
The CSC posted to its social media Thursday evening, stating it is “deeply saddened by the tragic loss of two officers and an offender in a tragic accident during a transfer from Edmonton Institution for Women. We extend our deepest condolences to the families, loved ones, friends, and colleagues during this incredibly difficult time.”

“Our colleagues who lost their lives in the line of duty served Canadians with professionalism, dedication, and courage. Their commitment to public safety and to CSC’s mission leaves a lasting legacy, and we will ensure their invaluable contributions to our country are never forgotten,” the Facebook post added.
