Prime Minister Justin Trudeau issued a statement in regards to the death of a police officer in Quebec.
Twenty-six year old Thierry Leroux was shot and killed in the line of duty while attending a domestic dispute call in Lac Simon – about five hours (drive) north of Montreal.
The shooter, a 22 year old, then turned the gun on himself and took his own life.
Leroux was from Amos, Quebec.
Police officers risk their lives to keep us safe. My deepest condolences to the family of young Thierry Leroux.
