Pray for the truth and for the souls of those who lost their lives…
I am so very sorry for the loss of the officers. Much respect and sincere condolences.
So very devastating for the families of these officers. My heart goes out to them. 😞
Criminals don’t follow the law.
My condolences to the family and friends of the murdered officers.
Isn’t that what makes them criminals?
I’m so sorry. Thoughts and prayers go out to families friends and coworkers. Thank you for your service.
My condolences to all affected by this tragedy 🙏
I havent heard any words about Police Bodycam footage being available to help with the investigation, having those bodycam could have help to learn what went wrong during the encounter to avoid such tragic ending in the future.
Might not be available. Not all officers in South Simcoe have a body camera.
What went wrong is the officers did not secure the area before engaging. This happened because of poor training.
Heart broken by this sad news. The government MUST go after illegal gun owners and leave out legal firearm owners alone.
I agree 100%, the govt. must do something concrete to counter all these gangland shootings. Perhaps do something useful instead of going after guns which are legally owned. Tighter boarder control might help? Condolences to all involved.
sending condolences and Prayers. So sad
My deepest condolences. 🙁
Prayers and condolences to the families and friends of the fallen officers and to all members of our police force
My condolences 🙏 most horrible thing to happen to brave men/women in a thankless position. Get rid of gangs and hard drugs!!!
And yet they hide the suspect’s information for an obvious reason. You are defying the cop’s death. May your brave souls rest In peace .
What is the obvious reason?
Heartfelt Condolences to the Police Community of brothers, family and friends, such a horrible tragedy.
Condolences to the police and their family’s
So sad that this goes on condolences to family and friends
Officers are affected by the gun prohibitions as it limits their training ability to practice with their personal firearms on their own time at the shooting range
My condolences to the family and friends of these fallen officers . It is always heart breaking when our officers are hurt or loss of life in service to the community 😢
My condolences to the families, brother/sisterhood of their fellow officiers.
My sincere condolences to the families of fallen officer’s
