Thursday “tough day” for all police following shooting of two Edmonton officers

Lethbridge Police Association President Jay McMillan says there’s a special camaraderie amongst police officers and that in Alberta first responders are particularly tight. He says Thursday was a very tough day for everyone at Lethbridge Police Service, adding that calls for domestic disputes are statistically the most dangerous for police officers other than traffic stops.
