Whitby, Ontario – The following statement is being issued on behalf of John Henry, Regional Chair and Chief Executive Officer for The Regional Municipality of Durham:

“On behalf of the Region of Durham and our residents, I would like to offer my deepest condolences on the passing of Constable Travis Jordan and Constable Brett Ryan of the Edmonton Police Service, who tragically passed away in the line of duty while responding to a domestic call this morning.

During this difficult time, our thoughts are with the Constables’ families and friends; the Edmonton Police Service; and the communities these heroes dedicated their lives to serving and protecting.

Flags at Regional Headquarters have been half-masted in their honour and will remain lowered until the day they are laid to rest.”
