Four Canadian Police Killed in Marijuana Raid, Most Officers Killed in 120 years The Associated Press ROCHFORT BRIDGE, Alberta (AP) -- Four Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers were killed Thursday while investigating an illegal marijuana farm, the deadliest single attack on police in Canada in 120 years. RCMP spokesman Cpl. Wayne Oakes said the four officers were at a Quonset hut on a farm near the village of Rochfort Bridge in northwestern Alberta when they were shot by a suspect, who was also found in the shed. A government source told The Canadian Press news agency that the suspect later killed himself after shooting the officers. "It's my sad duty to inform you that four members of the RCMP were killed today in the line of duty _ four brave, young members," said Bill Sweeney, commanding officer of the RCMP in the western province of Alberta. "The loss of four police officers is unprecedented in recent history," Sweeney said. "I'm told you have to go back to about 1885 in the RCMP history during the Northwest Rebellion to have a loss of this magnitude." Sweeney said he couldn't give details on the shootings until all the facts were gathered. Prime Minister Paul Martin called it an act of ``brutality'' and offered his condolences to the families of the slain officers. --------------------------------------------------- http://www.officer.com/article/article.jsp?id=22072&siteSection=1 Not good...
