Fredericton police have identified two police officers who were among four people killed in a shooting Friday morning in a residential area on the city’s north side. Police said they have a 48-year-old Fredericton man in custody who was being treated for serious injuries. A Fredericton hospital, Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional, “is currently treating multiple victims of today’s shooting,” the local health authority said shortly before noon. “He loved being a police officer and he lived for being a police officer,” she told The Canadian Press in an interview. They watched as the hospital’s New Brunswick and Canadian flags were lowered to half-mast.
