EDMONTON – Police have identified the boy killed alongside his father in a targeted shooting in Edmonton last week.
Police say autopsies were completed earlier this week on 11-year-old Gavin Uppal and his 41-year-old father, Harpreet Uppal.
Both were confirmed to have died from gunshot wounds.
Emergency crews responded to calls last Thursday of a shooting outside of a business in the southeast part of the city.
Police say both victims died on scene, while another 11-year-old boy, a friend of Gavin’s, fled and was not injured.
Police say they will continue to investigate the homicides and encourage anyone with information on the suspects to come forward.
