A 41-year-old man and his 11-year-old son were killed Nov. 9 at a gas station next door to a shopping mall in Edmonton, Alberta. Both victims died at the scene, emergency responders were told by late afternoon. Police believe the killing was targeted.

So far, no details are known about the details of the incident, and no eyewitnesses to the incident have also been found. In a press release from the Edmonton Police Investigations Unit, officers are encouraging citizens to share any useful information:

"The loss or injury of children as a result of gunfire is unfathomable and we urge anyone with information that may assist this investigation to come forward as soon as possible."
